Yesterday was a cloudy day, and I rode the lift up to the top of Mont Fort 3330 meters above sea level. The glacier under the lift shared by Verbier and Nendaz is called the Glacier de Tortin, it is the one you ski on if you come up here in winter.
In the morning I had read an article that says the Mont Blanc Glaciers are going to lose another 8 to 10 meters of volume before winter! So here are the photos of our disapearing glacier, with some alarming new crevasses.
I predict that this glacier will become unskiable in the next 5-10 years.
At the lift station at Col des Gentianes. Looks forbiden!
Nice photo to look at when there is no view. The lift people where a bit upset that the lift is now only going to be open on week-ends. Too bad!
The view appeared for a spiiiit second!
How will this enourmous crevasse be filled so we can ski on it this winter?
Quite beautiful patterns
