   TOUR OF MONT BLANC
SEPTEMBER  9 - 22, 2006
$2000
Jack & Shelley Finnegan, Leaders
la balmeOne of the classic mountain walks of the world, TMB circles the highest mountain in Western Europe.  The Mont Blanc Massif, composed of Mont Blanc (15,536') and a flank of impressively spectacular peaks and glaciers, uniquely straddles the borders of France, Italy, and Switzerland.  This classic mountain trek has attracted mountaineers and hikers from all over the world for over two hundred years.

Circling the base of the magnificent Mont Blanc Range, this 105-mile historic route wanders through alpine meadows, over barren passes, into small village hamlets, and beneath gigantic glaciers.  During our unhurried 14-day tour we will view Mont Blanc and its surrounding peaks, glaciers, and alpine valleys from three different countries as we hike in the French, Italian, and Swiss Alps.  TMB is undeniably one of the finest hiking tours in the world. (Tentative Itinerary)
