Special thank you, again, to Caroline & Lionel for their hospitality. & Congradulations to the proud new parents of Anna, Absolute Chamonix's newest future pilot. I am sure she will be X-Alp material given the quality of the dna that combined to create her. DH - USA supporter.

Of course it wasnt that easy. Italian roads are really narrow. So I couldnt

get to honza at all. Luckily he flew into Tirano. As it was windy rowdy. He

had altitude but as soon as he entered the valley leading into piz palu the

sun came back and valley winds forced him back to Tirano.

Hello race fans,

Sitting at Tre Cime trailhead waiting for Honza to fly away from the

turnpoint. He & Jouni spent the night at the Tre Cime refuge. A hard hiking

day left him a bit bonked. I hiked up with Fin supporter Toni and met them

at 11pm. Then hiked down. Epic looking day here. Hope it doesnt OD.

Here we go! On to Piz Palu!

beer on the way back down. Honza was bonking a bit & Jouni looked casual. We

had some fun hiking up & down. Nice change from always being the driver &

cook. Hope the boys get a good flight in tomorrow. Might be the only day in

More then 100 hours into the race & the body is starting to feel the effects of the abuse of constant go go go. It seems much faster pace this year as everyone is full throttle for monaco.

Rain in the valleys & snow up on the higher mountains. More walking for sure to try and catch those who flew the strong conditions late yesterday afternoon. Ballsey or foolish, not really relevant.

Yeah, both front rotars and breaks....stupid rental. This is gonna cost us.

At least Ewald Toferer in Eban im Pomgau is taking care to get it done right

so I'll be able to stop while driving thru the alps. Honza is with Pierre up

high hiking because strong winds demand no flying. I hope their route is

easy & the van is fixed in time to meet him at the pass.

The boy is off and running this AM my first 4am start because I dropped him at the hut on Dachstien and then drove around to the southside thinking flying off thr mountain would not be possible.

It is hard to believe another two years have almost past. My son Martin is now two years old and a great training partner. We go running 10km with him on my shoulders several times a week.
