Snowshoeing in Champex Lac

The Val d'Arpette was a perfect destination today as it was cloudy and sort of a white out all over the Entremont region in the Valais.

Magical lichens of every kind imaginable hanging onto the larches (mélèzes). Absolutely awesome to check all the different shapes and colors it comes in!

Definitely clean air up here, as lichens cannot grow in heavily polluted areas. 

Even the snow was hanging its tongue out by the time we were ready to head back down! Snowshoeing is the activity where you burn the most calories! Woohoo! Bring on bikini season!
