Nice, nice post Denis--thanks for the pics, too.

 It was cool to read how you experienced a bit of the "grip" when you got
caught in the white-out--it seems like a bit of fear factor always makes an
alpine trip feel that much more "earned." Good job using the tracks as a
way to get down and avoid disorientation. I'll remember that trick.
