30th July. Armchair/Wheelchair Mountaineering.

Grating one knee on tarmac is hardly the best preparation for Alpine Mountaineering or glacier travel in general.

It really is a Total Arse Up.

However a couple of days walking up to the Bertol Hut and back to acclimatize will provide an excellent indication for the week ahead or even years ahead.

Unless there is wheelchair access?
