I would love to share some of the beautiful mountain scenery encountered on our trip around the French/Swiss/Italian Alps.
The above photo was taken at the top of Mont Blanc. Don’t be fooled by the sun, it was a bone chillingly cold -25c and I couldn’t feel my fingers.

These daredevils were about to ski from the top of Mont Blanc into Italy. A big ‘nope’ from me!

I love all the different shades of blues and the whiter than white mountain in this photo. It was actually a really crappy day for snowboarding, icy and hard packed so it wasn’t fun if you had a tumble. I think it has a real ‘phone wallpaper’ feel to it, maybe I’ll sell it to Apple…

I had to stop and admire the beautiful stratigraphy of this mountain.

Windy day! Better to stay inside and admire from afar.

Lunch with a view at our local mountain La Clusaz. Mountains as far as the eye can see!

The majestic Matterhorn took my breath away at every turn.

Arty farty shot of mini mountains in front of mega mountains.

My favourite place to enjoy a refreshing beer is on a mountain after a long day of snowboarding.

I hate to pick a favourite but Verbier certainly ticked a lot of boxes. Gorgeous village, huge skiable area, reliable snow, great restaurants, and a fun apres scene.

Italy this side, France the other and a beautiful glacier in the middle.

On a mission for fresh powder.

This was taken in Courmayer, Italy. If you zoom in you can see three adventurers hiking up the left hand side of the mountain in front.
