Acclimatization in the Vallee Blanche

Don, Mimi, and I walked the knife edge ridge to descend to the Valee Blanche above Chamonix, France, in the French Alps in order to spend a bit a of time acclimatizing ourselves in preparation for our summit attempt of Mont Blanc.  The weather was perect and we now have a bit more red blood cells than before.  Back in Chamonix, the rafters, paragliders, and tourists seem to be having a great day.
