Col du Tacul

Powder, Crevasses, more powder and a few beers!

From the Midi a high traverse above the Rognons and head across the crevas field to the bottom of the Italian VB. Stay above the glacier and keep skiers right. Cross the next glacier and skin up the side of it!
An hour up and you reach a large serac/block of ice! Take care as theres a load of crevasses here! Team Sweeden, Sarah, on her snow shoes will testify as we implemented Crevasse rescue 101!
Another hour or so up and you can reach the shoulder below the Col du Tacul!

From here be prepared for A LOT of fresh lines and powder!!!
