My wife and I will be in Chamonix from May 6-11 and are planning to do some hiking.. We are a very fit 60-ish couple and need advice not only for one particular hike but other recommendations anyone may have. The hike in question will be from Montevers- Mer de Glace to Plan du L'Augille (going through Le Signal) with the gondola ride to the top of Aguille du Midi. The question is, how do I purchase a ticket from the midway point, Plan du L'Aguille Intermediate Station to the top, and a return to Chamonix? I'm assuming there is no return route to Montevers other than the route we took on the ascent. Any advice and other recommendations would be helpful.
Thanks,
Frank
