It seems I was wrong in my post yesterday and the snow is expected to fall over the next 3 or 4 days… Fortuitously this meant another sunny day for me to pick off another walk from my list. I didn’t want to take the car, so I decided to walk to Les Haudères from our home in Evolène. As you will see there’s still plenty of snow around and it’s only going to get deeper!

It’s still falling as I type… and more expected tomorrow and Friday. Though it’s not as heavy as it could be, so I’m not expecting to have to dig out too much over the coming days. But, we’ll see! (We’re well stocked up anyway – just in case!)

oh good – nothing better than hunkering down in a good snowstorm! Do you cross country ski around there?

Yep – check out pics 3, 21, 25 & 26… I’m no good at it though, which is slightly frustrating!

Thanks Hanna. I have some snowshoes/raquettes but, to be honest, unless the snow is really, REALLY deep, (and over a long distance), I prefer to wade thought it in my boots. 😊

The snow is covering everything beautifully!

Sadly the temperature has risen and the precipitation has turned to sleet/rain, so everything has gone horribly wet and soggy (making clearing the driveway twice as difficult/heavy!) So, we’ll probably just have a lot of ice when it freezes again – unless it snows again of course. I’m glad I made hay while the sun shone (as it were!)

The shots with the bright, sparkling snow and blue sky are gorgeous, but I find the ones shot in the shadows, where everything is all softly blue to really grab me. Not sure why, but I really feel the quietness of all that blanketing of snow in the ‘blue’ shots. ♥

Very interesting… A lot of the walk was in the shade, that’s for sure – and cooler because of it of course. I’m not sure the camera captures the colours accurately as the pictures do seem more blue than they should be. But blue is better than grey! 😊
