In the beginning of the week we were able to see the border between Italy and Switzerland, we now moved to seeing the border between Italy and France. Bardonecchia hosted an Olympic Village for the Olympics Turin 2006. There are lots of options for outdoor sports. Worth a visit.

Lago di Sorapis



One of the most stunning places I've been to in the Dolomites. Last year I was here on a warm summer day. Earlier this autumn, though, the lake looked radically different, being completely frozen over. Both times, I did the easy hike up (route 215), and the considerably harder hike down (route 216 & 213). The latter offers the most sensational views over the surrounding mountains and is very well worth the effort. You mustn't be afraid of heights, though.

I’ve taken many shots like this, every year, with the same subject and in the same place. Yet I’m still fascinated by this perspective.
This one is from just a few hours ago: the sunset and the "fragile" flower. A breath of wind will be enough, and the flower, as we see it, will vanish. Yet it will be everywhere, spreading itself across the world.
There it stands, swaying in the gentle air and the soft warmth of a November sunset, defying whatever happens around it.

No yesterday, no tomorrow - just here, now, basking in this poetic light.

And life, silently, flows on.

🍁🏔️ autumn is awesome 🏔️🍁



Fantastic hike today near Champoluc with views on majestic mountains like the Matterhorn and Monte Rosa. The colours of snow and leaves were vibrant and complementary.



We opted for a start by cable car as it was still very cold in the shades and the cabnle car brought us up to the sun warmth. It was even T-shirt weather up there. An easy Höhenweg took us to two small settlements, in pre-winter sleep. For the winter they will wake up to serve skiers and winter hikers.



We started our descent before we would end up in the shades later in the afternoon. Thehot tub and sauna were waiting to make this the perfect day.

I was not able to verify quickly, but I believe it was written in the laws of the Fediverse that you are obliged to post pictures of the Matterhorn in case you sight it on #MountainMonday, so here you go.

…and at night, when everything seems so dark you are starting to get crazy and hopeless, just remember: a new morning will come and a new sun will shine for you.

We knew it should be beautiful, but this really surpasses our expectations. View from hotel room, stunning to wake up with.

The panorama shows the Walliser Breithorn (the highest point not visible, which is slightly to the left) and the "twins" Castor and Pollux.

Castor was our goal in 2005, but the night before the summit attempt there was a 50cm snow dump and our guides gently let us know we would not be up to the physical challenge of making a "Spur". As a substitute we climbed the Breithorn instead.
