Logistics & Field Support
The field team plays a key role in the project and provides daily support to Frédéric throughout the entire route:
Support, Mobile Base & Operations
Continuous support is provided via a camper van serving as a logistical base, means of transportation, and living space throughout the entire project. This setup helps limit costs and reduce environmental impact, notably by avoiding the use of multiple vehicles and hotel accommodations.
The team also manages the camper van’s essential daily resources (fuel, gas, water), ensuring autonomy and the smooth continuity of the project.
Fueling & Equipment Management
Supplies for the second part of the day are prepared during the midday break to ensure effort continuity, with anticipation and provision of equipment adapted to the conditions encountered—particularly in the event of rain or rapidly changing weather.
Meal Preparation
The team is fully autonomous in meal preparation and sets aside a portion tailored to Frédéric’s needs. Lunch remains simple, functional, and substantial, while the evening meal is more structured and freshly prepared.
Real-Time Safety Monitoring
Live and secure tracking of Frédéric’s progress along the route, ensuring his safety and effective team coordination.
Occasional On-Course Support
When Frédéric is unable to reach the camper van, a member of the logistics team intervenes directly on the route to provide supplies and clothing, with the possibility of spending the night in a mountain refuge if necessary—particularly during the Via Alpina section.
Daily Meeting Points
Travel to the planned midday and overnight meeting points whenever possible, depending on how the stage unfolds.
A huge thank you to the field team for believing in the project as strongly as I do, long before the start—for their commitment and patience… and thank you in advance for all the thanks that fatigue will no doubt make me forget to say during the crossing.
