Do you see the refuge? Not the Promontoire, the Châtelleret.
No? Nevertheless I have already said for another picture, it is in the middle of the valley.
It is not important, you certainly see the colossal climber who takes off to an assault upon the mountains. Yes, he is on the (névé) snow, in the foreground. Why you said, he is very small!

The lowest point of this image is at 2000m, the highest point, the Aiguille de l'Encoula is at 3536m. Do you not feel as taken among 4 huge walls?

No, it is as in a suburb, furthermore it is not bigger! The whole holds in 2 x 8 km, no more. A small suburb district of a big city. Moreover the road which comes in, down there, has just been enlarged to 2 ways. That should not be too difficult to extend it to there. A good property project and all this place would be highlighted. Is that my mind ramble? Yes, I hope. Now road can leads the tourists, and not only the fanatics of mountains.

Well, everything of that happens on the south of La Meije. One of the ( too ) scarce places still a little bit wild in France.
I have already shown you, the north face. See this image again.
