Le 18 juillet 2007
Mont Dana en boucle, montée par le couloir nord, descente par la voie normale versant ouest
Sommet : 4000 m
Dénivelée : 1000 m
Difficulté : PD, mais couloir en glace bleue à 45° sur 200 m...
Un des sommets majeurs du parc de Yosemite en Californie, facilement accessible lors d'une ascension à la journée, grâce à la route atteignant une altitude de 3000 m.
Ascension par le couloir Dana à la montée - en solo suite à la prolongation d'un déplacement professionnel - et trouvé en glace... alors que je l'espérais en neige. Grosse frayeur donc dans l'ascension en solo intégral, avec piolet léger en aluminium rebondissant à chaque tentative d'ancrage dans la glace bleue, et des crampons également aluminium... Le magnifique panorama sommital à 360° me fera oublier ces sueurs froides, avec une vue englobant les sommets enneigés du massif du Yosemite et le disque bleu posé en plein désert du lac (salé) Mono à l'est. La descente se fera donc par la voie normale pour me remettre de ces émotions un peu trop fortes...
le couloir Dana, en glace vive, au-dessus du glacier éponyme
à la rimaye en bas du couloir, beaux contrastes de couleurs
vue du sommet sur le lac Mono, une marmotte également en contemplation
vue sur le parc de Yosemite et au centre son point culminant le mont Lyell à 4000 m
