Ruitor from Crammont

Here's the big round glacier I showed you last night, viewed from the summit of Crammont, to its NNW. In the lower right of the image is the town of La Thuile.

From Pre St Didier, at the Y in the Valdigne containing Courmayeur and the valleys of La Thuile and Morgex, the summit of the Crammont is about 6 hours' slog and 1700 m vertical difference. The early French alpinist Saussure considered this the badassest walk he ever took and I have the pictures to prove him right.
