SNOW & SUN

It snowed constantly above 2400m yesterday and it was like a Scottish winter day as we made our way over the Col Sapin and over to the Bonatti Refugio. In complete contrast in had been glorious blue skies today. We continued our TMB route over the Grand Col Ferret. Outside the Bonatti Refugio the virw to the Grand Jorasess is amazing. Over the col we enjoyed stupendous views and the group had big smiles trekking in the snow. There is even a cornice on the Swiss side of the col. Pretty unusual start to the summer trekking season.

Hi Gary, great pictures as always. It sure whets the appetite for when I head there in September. Don't imagine there will be as much snow there them, but the way this year is going who knows. Enjoy the trip.
