Autumn colours around Mont Blanc

We started this walk from the Ski centre at Le Bettex, gradually climbed with snowless mountains behind us. After a while we started to encounter some lovely autumn colours.

 

 
And as we climbed higher clear views of Mont Blanc came into view and more foliage allowed further lovely photos. Mont Blanc is the highest peak, but what is not so obvious is how how much higher it is from the next nearest peak: something like 3000 metres.


 Le Mont D'Arbois brought us even more dramatic views.





The last leg back to Le Bettex was muddy and slippery, but well worth the earlier sights.
