Day 75

Hier on a eu les previsions meteo par satellite : ciel degage et vent entre 8 et 14 km/h. Ma tente est sur un rocher donc les sardines tiennent uniquememt avec des cailloux poses dessus mais vu le peu de vent ca va le faire. Reveille au milieu de la nuit par des grosses bourasques qui arrachent mes sardines de leur rocher et evidemment avec ca il y a de la grele, ma tente se retourne la grele rentre et mouille l'interieur... j'ai du sortir 5-6 fois pour reajuster les sardines ou juste tenir la tente face au vent avec la grele dans le visage. Autant dire que j'ai pas beaucoup dormi. J'aurais pu partir tot ce matin mais la tempete n'etait pas finie donc on a attendu deux heures de plus ou au lieu de me reposer j'ai juste essayer de garder ma tente debout ( sortir de la tente la nuit ca veut dire mettre ses pieds nus dans des chaussures gelees pour ne pas mouiller les chaussettes de nuit et c'est vraiment pas agreable). Ensuite on fait le col, c'est un col plutot difficile et en plus avec toute la grele et neige de la nuit il n'y a plus de traces donc on doit tout refaire. Apres ca le reste de la journee se passe plutot bien, meme si on a la tete dans les nuages. On a quand meme eu le droit a un rayon de soleil de 16h30 a 16h40. Mais demain si tout se passe bien on arrive en ville !!! Apres 12jours dans la montagne la douche fera du bien.

Yesterday we got the forecast by satellite : clear sky and wind between 8 to 14km/h. My tent is on a rock so the stakes are not in the ground but holding only with small rocks put on them, but there won't be a lot of wind so it shoukd hold. At least it was what the forecastwas saying. Woke up in the middle of the night by huge guts of wind taking off my stakes from their rock, and with the wind there is hail too, which is now going right into my tent... I had to go out line 5-6 timesduring the night just to put back the stakes or to hold my tent against the wind, with the hail going right into my face. So as you can guess i didn't sleep a lot. I could have leave early this morning but the storm wasn't finished yet, so we usually leave around 06h but we had to wait till 08h. I could have get some rest but instead I had to fight to keep my tent standing up (going out of its tent in the middle of the night means putting your bare foot inwet shoes to not wet the sleeping socks, and that's really not enjoyable). Then the pass, it's a difficult pass and with all the snow and hail from tonight there are no more tracks so we have to do it again. After that the day was nice, even if we litterally had our heads in the clouds. But we did get a ray of sunshine between 16h30 and 16h40. If all goes well tomorrow we'll be in town !!! After 12days in the mountain the shower will be welcomed.
