Xi'an's Og

After a one-day break, I am now getting ready for the Bayesian course in Aosta next week. And for the much expected mountain excursions! Last morning, I sorted my gear to put in the trunk later today.

I will presumably not use most of the climbing gear and almost certainly not the old-fashion ice pick from Glencoe, but just in case… Which then made me realise I had forgotten to take my crampons, once again! (Last time this happened, I was ab out to climb Gully #3 of Ben Nevis with Ivan Gentil and the guide Alan Kimber thankfully provided some for the best winter climb ever! This time, I am not so sure I could find crampons in Cogne…)
