(sick)
massive walk / climb up Gummfluh, 2458m, from Chateau d'oex. , with Helen & Philppa
took 7 hours, but was quite stressful due to steep drops & almost no protection. used rope & harnesses.
hot and had to walk fast at end.
we were all wrecked, but for me, this has triggered another relapse of my CFS/ME condition; lik last year; I do not understand how, as for eg, the OMM (both days) was harder last autumn, & did not leave me ill at all.
I am at a loss. but not happy. the altitude cannot have been a factor as <2500m is not a lot, and it wasn't eve more than 7 hours.
Just spent £330 on mew ALpine gear so am feeling really low about this. Liz arrives on Ffriday for 3 weeks. Hmm........
