Gran Paradiso

~ Saturday 22nd September 2012

 Climbing the Gran Paradiso with the Dutch Army yesterday. This was part of a fund raising trip by the army in support of families of soldiers killed and injured in Afghanistan.

Conditions were great - if a little chilly - on top with amazing views. For a group of people on their first mountaineering trip the organisation and fitness was impressive, with almost everyone making the summit.
