Sunny day and meeeeelting glacier water! From the valley fields bursting with flowers awaiting happy cows, we walked up as far as we could to see the Ferpecle Glacier and Mont Miné Glacier.
The moon was still over us as we started out!
What a view, what a day. We got our feet a bit wet in some places. It is increadible to witness all this melting!
Will the Mont Miné Glacier still be visible in 20 years? As we came around the corner a huge peice came crashing off the left side of it. Scaring us from going to close.
The moraines on the sides are completely powdery and difficult to walk on. A very fragile environment indeed...
La Dent Blanche and the Borgne de Ferpecle gushing with silt, giving the river a fascinating color.
Picnic time! And sunscreen time!
The flowery cow fields! We wandered through one that had flowers up to my armpits! I felt like a real troll in Heidiland here!
Evolène is really a Swiss postcard!
