I hope that weather conditions will not drown this sunday excursion. Nevertheless we have to be prepared. Recall last weekend!. I recommend even warmer and more hermetic clothes, if possible! BOOTS are MANDATORY this time!!!! Here is my proposal for excursion 08 on Sunday, 18th of September:
Date: | Sunday, 18 September 1994 |
Site: | Mont Billiat (1894 m) |
Classification: | Difficult |
Altitude: | 1894 m |
Climbing up distance: | 1094+190 m |
Climbing time: | 4 hours |
Total hiking time: | 7 hours |
Starting point: | Les Esserts (800 m) |
Meeting point: | CERN Main Cafeteria, on Sunday at 8.30 am |
Remarks: | Panoramics |
Access: | To reach Les Esserts we should drive to Thonon, take theroad D902 in direction to Montriond-Morzine. 16 km after Thonon we must be at the begining of the Jotty lake. 200 m after we should take a road to the right which drives to Les Esserts (2 km from the crossing). The trip to Les Esserts may take 1 hour 20 minutes. |

It is convenient to emphasize some useful items: please do not forget to carry on (wear) raincoat, hat/cap and sun glasses, warm gloves, hiking boots or sport-footwear with thick and non-slipping sole, enough food and drinks for the own consumption. Spear dry clothes and after excursion confortable shoes are very convenient.
Have a lovely weekend! Cheers! Jose.
