Itinerary description
Date : 2021.04.08
Duration on paper : 06h09 (winter hiking)
Duration real with breaks : 06h34
Difficulty for me : T3
Physical : very difficult
Technical : difficult
Fear : average
Attendance ascent/summit/descent : null/low/low
Comment : still learning winter hiking ! doing a steep climb on snow in an area most of the day in the shade was pretty bad idea :/ took me almost 60min just to do the Dorbon La Brune climb, the snow was mostly frozen that was a snowshoe or crampons hike made with winter boots, several times I had to grab trees and bushes branches to pull myself up and thus you get the difficult rating, the risk of slipping and hurting myself was high, anyway it was a good learning experience, it's a great and recommended hike but not in those conditions or with better gear (light crampons would have been fine)
