Yeeees !

It's funny how the North face can be so different from the South Face !
Thanks for posting.

Re: Yeeees !

Thank you for the comment. Yes, I have only seen the South face in photos, but is does look like a completely different mountain.

Re: Yeeees !

For me the South Face is the nicest... actually the South Face of La Meije is my favourite alpine landscape in France.

Re: good shot

Thanks for your comment, Charles! I hope the photo will attract more climbers to this "finest mountain in the Alps from a mountaineering viewpoint" (Eric Shipton).

Thanks, Ejnar!

When we were driving over this high pass, weather was lousy, so thank you for bringing me this great view!

Beautiful hanging glacier!

The Col du Galibier has a colorful history with the Tour de France. Thanks again for all your votes!

Re: Beautiful hanging glacier!

Thank you. There actually is a statue on the road reminding the visitors of the Tour de France!
You are very welcome to my votes, I like the colour intensity and sharpness of your photos.
