Wondrous vid series. Brought back so Many memories. THANKS. The ladders scared me - but only the first 1-2 runs. The rest was non-scary. Just Strenuous. Stayed at Lac Blanc, overnight, in Thunder/rain [2012 - before the (Temporary) hiatus in the quality of the Refugio]. Then s****y hard rain, all next day, which made us descend to Chamonix, 1 day short. But overall, a life-memory. Thanks for sharing YOURS, so vividly ! (and kudos for scoring)

Thanks for taking these videos. They were amazing. Thanks for the narration and the humor. Thanks for being honest about the difficulties. I did it with my wife about a week after you. We did 7 days with some skips, we slept only in hotels, and our luggage was taken from point to point. It was an amazing !!! trip, can only compare it to the EBC I did 10 years earlier. We are both over 60 and we are extremely proud for doing it. So thanks again for sharing !!!!!!

You da' man Angelo! You did a great job on these videos. They were very entertaining. You have a great sense of humor and a great family. Keep the family adventures going as long as you can. If you like this kind of hut to hut hiking, consider the W trek in Patagonia and Alta Via 1 in the Dolomites. Thanks for sharing these videos and for all the editing you must have put in.

Thank you for your last TMB video! Loved every minute of your trip. I am not staying in one single accommodation you stayed in, but learned a lot from seeing what you did. My daughter (24) and I her mom, (64) will be going the first of Sept, though we will be missing the alps wildflowers (which we always love seeing in spring there), I won't have to be freaking out over those snow pack areas wondering if they will let go...of course the areas between the ladders is now what scares me, but I will do it. Thank you again!

@@OurExitStrategy, yeah, falling through would be horrifying. Yes, as long as my vertigo/balance doesn't make me misstep on all those weird footings after each ladder, I will be ok, if not...a tumbling I will go....down, down the mountain side, a tumbling I will go!

Any chance y’all would do a ‘now that it’s over, good bad and ugly’ sit down? Like what was the best section of trail, best dorm, thing you wished you packed, thing you most happy to have, etc. anything you’d do differently? Different length days, different refuges, etc. do you wish you had physically prepared more, etc. would love to hear your thoughts.

I’ve watched the whole series through twice now, and have referred it to the other 22 hikers of the group I’ll be going with in July. It’s loaded with tips, insights, humor and gorgeous views throughout. Thank you for providing a polished yet unvarnished take on the TMB. It’s a real treasure! I’m also wondering where you exited the Grand Balcon Sud on the last day, and had you considered taking the Tram/Gondola down like you’d wanted to do approaching Courmayeur?
@OurExitStrategy

Thank you so much! Polished but unvarnished- I like that! I'm not 100% sure where we started heading down from the Grand Balcony Sud - I think we were sort of winging it. We did consider taking the Gondola and we probably should have. The Grand Balcony Sud was gorgeous - but once you enter the tree line it's just a long slog through the woods. Pretty - but a bit anti-climactic. My daughter and I really wanted to hit the 103 or 110 miles of walking or whatever it was. Kind of dumb. A gorgeous ride down in a comfortable gondola honestly would have made for a better ending probably!
