Had a great time until the last Friday when I had a fight with some rocks and came off worse. Now 2 weeks into a 10 week course of physio. Still at least it was at the end of the season
Most of these shots are taken at a height of almost 3600 metres. It was unusually warm i.e. above freezing. I'm usually wearing countless layers up here but in the photo below I'm down to a base layer. The last shot you can see the glacier actually melting. I've been coming to La Grave for around 4 years now and have never seen this. I also know someone who's been guiding there for years and has never known this happen before
