Report

Style consistent with historic ski records: 

-All equipment carried start to finish 

-Water and nutrition stashed on route (cache at 2000m and a second cache at just below the Grand Mulets hut) 

-Had one individual attempt to put in a skinner for me, but route was too firm for him to do much. Did some route prep removing stubborn patches on trail and adding some snow to a dry patch at 2200m. Attempted to use snow to reinforce snow bridge at Junction but probably didn't help 

-Solo entire effort

-Unlike Brosse/Gignoux: No help with transitioning
