Opis:
Day 2. Plans are great but they fail to capture the true essence of the day. On my second day of the Haute Route I’ll traverse some 30 unknown, unseen miles in rain and snow. I’ll run on single track, walk the paved paths of small Swiss villages, and hike through snow covered boulder fields. Every step reveals something new and I never could have planned or prepared completely for a day like today. And in a way that’s what makes something like this awesome. Anyway, the butchering of the French language continues on episode two of the Haute Route. In this episode I charge towards the Alps facing wind snow and a surprising amount of pavement.
