Some pics of this weeks snow .... starting in the garden ....
a peek at the hamlet from the garden....
and the side garden ... at the bottom of the pic you can just see the little trench Aaron dug out for Mr Lawrence ... a spoilt cat :D
looking down the garden and across to the Chartreuse mountains .... lots of snow fell in the valley too .... lots of chaos Wednesday!!!
and then into the car......
the road into the hamlet ...
some of the cute barns on the road that zigzags up to the hamlet.. I do love these ...
the view down the valley from the road
a glimpse of the neighbouring hamlet of Le Feyjoux
and on down the mountain towards the village ... we just missed a tree falling here, on the return journey it was lying on the side of the road .....
the road has lots of twists and 'blind' corners ... I dread meeting the wood lorries or coaches coming from the nearby cross country ski station .... not fun when there are few barriers and steep falls!!
arriving down to the village of St Pierre d Allevard....
and around the lake to the town of Allevard on the other side ...
Allevard .. the mountain on the left leads to the Collet d Allevard ski resort at the top .. it has lots of floodlit night skiing ...fun if you do that kind of thing ... unlike me :)
and our mountain as seen from the road heading to the valley ....
et voila, finally our mountain as seen from the valley :)
