After crawling out of the FrĂȘney glacier with broken ribs etc no alternative to a bivy under the Col Innominata, despite risk of stone-fall. Next say Simon climbed back out and called for the helicopter from the Monzino.

Correct. Wedding present from Mo.

That part of the Freney is a horrow show - constant rockfall, serac collapses and massive holes everywhere. Probably the scariest place I've hung around in the Mt Blanc massif!

A very good and sobering shot, and a reminder of occasional Alpine realities. Thanks for posting.
