    A new variation route called "Round trip from Chamonix ON SKIS" has been added in Sept-24. We don't plan to add any ski variations, though.

    Got sick the first night with a headache, sore throat, and probably a fever. I continued on for another day or so. Eventually exited out to Mammoth Lakes to end the attempt. I'll be back.
