About this photo album

About... A splendid walk in wild Northern Belledonne, under a very hot sun. Above the Lac des Balmettes, I was alone till the Brèches de la Passoire, from where I could see the wild Veyton valley... On the way back, a very nice encounter with a mother ibex and her little child. Also, the first time I was seeing vultures in Belledonne (roughly 20 of them!)
