Powdery landscape
A freshly snow landscape, only marked by a nightly wild hare (and some backcountry skiers on the right) serve as the foreground of a view of the Pennine Alps, with Catogne peak in prominence.

Val de Bagnes

Lac Bleu
Fed directly by the glacier of Aiguilles Rouges d'Arolla, a small lake sits serene in an alpine meadow. A common stop for local hikers in a sunny Summer day, it holds up to its name.

A little mountain garden
On the Eastern side of Mont Gelé, a little plain comes to live with little streams of melting snow. The local calls it Jardin Japonais, as if perfectly designed by intention and not just sheer erosion. The latter holds true.
