It rained almost all last night in Martigny and I started out in deep puddles of water.
Since it was going to be a muddy trail I opted for a long uphill roadwalk.
This stage has minimal support most of the way and what support there was was closed.
Thankfully I found several huge fruit groves and picked a few ripe fruits to enjoy along the way.
Beautiful scenery throughout the day and a huge Calzone and a beer for lunch in Orsieres.
