Nous avons rencontré Aymeric AMIEL début 2021, dans les interstices des confinements et autres enfermements sanitaires. La voie du voyage, du sud, et du vin avait tapé fort à la porte de nos réclusions. Un sentiment de liberté nous appelait. Quoi de mieux que le vin nature pour s'enivrer de liberté ? Sentir le soleil sur la peau, entendre chanter l'accent du sud, accepter l'invitation d'une dégustation à l'heure du déjeuner : on amène le fromage, les frères AMIEL ont du saucisson ! La promesse d'un moment partagé. Cette belle rencontre post confinement a donné naissance à d'autres d'échanges. Le vin c'est le lien et ce n'est pas Aymeric AMIEL qui dira le contraire. Nous nous rendons donc ce mois de mars 2025 dans le petit village de Montblanc, à quelques kilomètres de Bézier, où Aymeric nous parle de la lignée familiale, met en récit les étiquettes d'une gamme étoffée, comme autant d'ancêtres ou nouveaux nés écrivant l'histoire. Les anecdotes deviennent fables, les mémoires presque légendes du haut de ces 5 siècles de vin dans la famille. Le vin c'est le lien, y compris entre les générations. Le parcours individuel d'Aymeric s'inscrit dans la continuité d'une conversion en bio mise en œuvre par son père. Ses voyages au Chili, en Californie et en Afrique du sud lui ont donné l'envie et les bases du vin nature et de la biodynamie. L'approche est holistique, humble, humaine. Aymeric aime vendre du bonheur et encourager la nature. Son vin le lui rend bien ! A vos verres, prêts, rencontre !

Send us a textTaking a vacation changed everything. After two weeks away—first helping my mom launch her book in Montana, then mountain biking through the red deserts of Moab with my family—I returned with a revelation that's transformed my approach to business and life.For years, I've resisted the "busy" badge of honor our culture celebrates. My mantra became "if it's not a hell yeah, then it's a hell no," yet I still found myself caught in the quantity trap. I was pushing out weekly newsletters that felt like inbox pollution, cranking out multiple YouTube videos weekly because "experts" said it would boost my channel, and filling my calendar with back-to-back adventure trips.Then came the experiment that changed everything. Instead of producing two quick videos, I poured my energy into creating one exceptional video about Nalgene water bottles. After 24 hours of silence, it exploded—7,000+ views and 200+ comments within a week. The message was clear: quality creates exponential results through deeper connection.This revelation sparked meaningful changes at Hike Like A Woman. Monthly newsletters will replace weekly ones. YouTube videos will come once weekly, crafted with care. And I'm reducing our 2026 guided trips to three extraordinary adventures—Scotland's West Highland Trail, Tour de Mont Blanc, and Kilimanjaro—allowing me to truly know the women joining these journeys.What might happen if you created more white space in your life? If you're feeling overwhelmed by commitments, try slowing down. Focus on excellence over frequency. Sometimes the path to greater impact requires doing less, but doing it extraordinarily well.

https://Art2Life.com - Art can manifest in countless ways, from traditional canvas paintings to more unconventional forms like intricate snow patterns.

Tous les écoliers de France le savent : du haut de ses 4.810 mètres, le mont Blanc est le plus haut sommet de l'Hexagone. Il doit donc se voir de très loin. Et, de fait, on peut parfois l'apercevoir depuis la Suisse ou même l'Alsace.Certains prétendent même qu'un visiteur parvenu au sommet de la Tour Eiffel pourrait distinguer cette montagne.Il est vrai que l'œil humain est capable de discerner des objets très éloignés. Et il les verra d'autant mieux qu'ils sont plus hauts et que l'observateur est lui-même plus grand.Ainsi, si une personne d'1,80 m peut distinguer un homme à une distance de près de 4,80 km, il pourra apercevoir la flèche de la cathédrale de Chartres, qui s'élève à plus de 110 m du sol, même s'il se trouve à 38 km de là.Une planète sphériqueAlors, est-il possible de voir le mont Blanc depuis la Tour Eiffel ? Sans répondre encore à cette question, il faut rappeler que certaines conditions doivent être réunies pour qu'un observateur distingue un objet lointain.Il faut d'abord qu'aucun obstacle n'obstrue le champ de vision de l'observateur. Par ailleurs, il verra plus loin s'il gagne en hauteur. À cet égard, la Tour Eiffel est donc un bon point d'observation.Notre planète étant sphérique, les objets que l'observateur s'efforce de voir vont finir par disparaître sous la ligne d'horizon. Pour calculer cette distance, à partir de laquelle les objets ne sont plus visibles, il faut recourir au célèbre théorème de Pythagore.Il nous enseigne que le mont Blanc est visible à 247,5 km à la ronde, alors que la Tour Eiffel, haute de 324 m peut être encore aperçue par un observateur situé à 64,2 km. Or, comme la distance de Paris au mont Blanc est d'un peu plus de 475 km, il est donc impossible de percevoir la montagne du haut du célèbre monument parisien.En altitude, enfin, la lumière ne se diffuse pas tout à fait en ligne droite, ce qui limite la perception des objets lointains.

This week's difficult woman is a sorely underrepresented group amongst the difficult women Alumni - a female adventurer. When she was at her lowest moment, Elise found comfort in the great outdoors and has made it her mission to highlight those brave women who have been forgotten by history. She now travels the world, tracing their footsteps, wearing the gear that would have been used at the time.
durée : 00:52:39 - Affaires sensibles - par : Fabrice Drouelle, Franck COGNARD - Aujourd'hui dans Affaires sensibles : l'incendie du tunnel du Mont-Blanc. Le 24 mars 1999, un camion de transport de marchandises prend feu lors de sa traversée du tunnel du Mont-Blanc, un axe routier sous terrain de 11 kilomètres qui relie la France et l'Italie. - réalisé par : Frédéric Milano
Iain is joined by adventurer Elise Wortley. In the last 7 years, Elise has taken on some hugely challenging projects to highlight some of the original – and largely forgotten - female mountaineers and explorers. What makes her ‘Woman With Altitude' project unique is that she has climbed and trekked in places such as the Himalayas, the Alps and the Cairngorms using the same equipment and clothing that was available to her female predecessors at the time. We discuss what it's like trying to summit Mt Blanc in hobnail boots, how you source a wooden-framed backpack and the challenges of hiking in woollen knickerbockers. Elise also featured in the Channel 4 programme ‘Alone' where she spend over a month in the Canadian wilderness completely alone.

In today's episode of Backpacker Radio, presented by The Trek, brought to you by Topo Athletic, we are joined by Curtis Himstedt, known on trail as Easily Forgotten. Easily Forgotten's backpacking resume is bananas. A partial list of his adventures includes the Annapurna Circuit, Pembrokeshire Coastal Path in Wales, the GR10, Tour du Mont Blanc, Yorkshire Dales High Way, South Downs Way, and Cotswold Way in England, the Triple Crown in the U.S., the Tahoe Rim Trail, and a continuous yo-yo of the Appalachian Trail and Long Trail between 2023-2024. Curtis takes us through these treks, especially the ones we haven't covered on the podcast before, shares how his first divorce inspired him to get into thru-hiking, explains why he feels more like himself on trail than in “the real world,” and gives us a preview of his upcoming adventures as he continues trekking strong into his 60s. We wrap the show with news of a major gear retailer accused of ties to forced labor, a new navigation app you'll want on your radar for 2025, the triple crown of the worst fashion trends, a debate on how to inform someone of their LNT violation, what we'd replace our hands with if given the choice, and much more.

Que ce soit sur les sentiers alpins atour du Mont-Blanc ou dans les descentes raides en vélo de montagne, elle carbure aux défis.

Life in the Peloton is proudly brought to you by MAAP Happy New Year! Life In The Peloton is back, and I'm really excited to kick off 2025 with one of the brightest stars in the Ultrarunning world; Lucy Bartholomew. A Melbourne native, Lucy's been competitively trail running since she was 16, when she lined up at a 100km race along the South Coast of Victoria with her old man. Since then, she's gone on to win Ultra Trail Race Australia in 2022, set the FKT on the truly epic 231km Larapinta Trail up in Northern Territory, and competed over in Europe at Ultra-Trail du Mont-Blanc. As if she wasn't already hardcore enough, in 2024 just a few weeks after finishing UTMB, she jetted off to Nice to tackle IronMan World Champs…just for fun! Ultrarunners are known for their resilience and determination, and Lucy completely epitomises that. I loved chatting to her about how she trains for 100km+ races, what it takes to make it in the ultrarunning world, some of her wild experiences out on the trail, how her parents - her dad, Ash, in particular - have helped drive her ultrarunning journey, and how she finds the mental strength to push through the tough moments. It was a really inspiring conversation that I think you're going to love. I was super excited to record with Lucy in person back home around my old area. We actually kicked off the pod by heading for a bike ride up Kinglake, before ripping back down for a quick brew. Then, we laced up the runners and headed out for a little 10ker, and chatted along the way. Needless to say, I kept the questions short to save my breath for running next to one of the most experienced ultrarunners in the world. I want to continue to explore even more new Pelotons in 2025, and the Trail Running space feels like the perfect place to start. It's a sport that's fascinated me for a while, having dabbled in a few ultra runs myself, so I wanted to bring you all inside a discipline that may not be so familiar to the cycling fans amongst you but shares a deep sense of challenge, performance, and adventure. I was fascinated to learn more about the psychology of ultrarunning and find out how similar it is to cycling. Lucy's been at the top of her game in the running space for the best part of a decade now, and it's so cool that she's now crossing over into our world and giving cycling a go. I hope you love listening to Lucy as much as I loved chatting with her. She's an all round legend, and might just inspire you to give trail running, or even an ultrarun, a go if you haven't before. We even recorded a cheeky ep of Talking Luft, so keep your ears peeled for that later this week!

Director of Coaching, Chantelle Robitaille takes over the Uphill Athlete podcast to turn the mic on usual host Alyssa Clark. They discuss Alyssa's journey to the UTMB (Ultra-Trail du Mont-Blanc) in 2024 showcasing the changes she needed to make to focus on resilience and growth. After years of preparation, she achieved 11th place in the most competitive women's field in UTMB history, finishing in 26 hours, 25 minutes, and 13 seconds. Her season was marked by challenges, including shifting her mindset from rigid perfectionism to embracing joy, curiosity, and adaptability in running. She credited her success to building a supportive team, seeking help, and prioritizing mental strategies, such as staying present and controlling the controllable. Alyssa and Chantelle conclude that the power of gratitude, community, and self-compassion are far stronger than pushing oneself to fear and failure.Visit us at uphillathlete.com or write to us at coach@uphillathlete.com
