Another summer hamlet


This is the hamlet of Les Fontanettes, at around 1800m on the lower slopes of La Grande Casse. In the winter it is totally covered in snow, in fact I didn't even know it was there until the snow melted this spring. We spend the winter skiing quite happily over the roofs.
You can see the Aiguille de Vanoise peeping out, Grande Casse is behind that.
The cows are still out on the pastures, hence the posts down the sides of the track, but soon they will be taken down the mountain to their winter homes in sheds in the village.
