As most of the people start just after midnight, we’ll sleep a little bit longer and we leave the hut just before the sunrise. With a late start, we avoid the crowds and we will enjoy the view during the ascent. The first step is the ridge du Goûter, not really technical but required to stay focus. It’s around 700 meters to climb in scrambling rocks. At the top of the ridge we’ll do a break à the Goûter Hut. Then, another 2 hours leads us up the Dôme du Gouter. From there we will clearly see the Mont-Blanc “Next step is the Vallot bivy, where we’ll have a break again. From there another hours and half to go and we’ll stand on the summit!
