Swiss Alps Haute Route - High Adventure (6/25/19 to 7/12/19)
Backpacking 131 miles along the Haute Route ("High Route") through the Alps from Chamonix, France to Zermatt, Switzerland, international culture and breathtaking scenery were coupled with some of the most strenuous backpacking imaginable.  Staying in mountain huts and valley inns, it was up a mountain and down a mountain, day after day for two weeks, with several climbs in excess of a vertical mile.
