Refuge de la Balme to Refuge des Mottes

We started with a huge climb up to a pass, Col du Bonhomme. Our new friend Jane joined us. She was effortlessly flying up the hill. We were sweating and gasping away.

After this pass, we climbed to a second pass at Col de la Croix du Bonhomme. Then down to the southern most point on the TMB, Le Chapieux. From there we took a bus 4 km up a horrible road to the 2 km driveway of Des Mottets.

We were given a private room with a shower. Amazing. The dinning room was a lot of fun as well. They even pulled out a player organ for a sing along.
