Chamonix, Mont Blanc, the Summit

Pictures from the summit of the tram ride, its 12,602 ft.

 
 
Chamonix version of Vanna!!

 
Give her credit, scared to death of heights and it was her idea to go, this cantilevered stair case got the best of her, but she hung in there, weak knees and all.

 
 
If you look real close in the picture above you can see some Alpinist walking down the ridge.





This is a new glass tunnel they are building across the face of the rock to walk through.
 
This gondola goes from the top across the mountain to Italy on the other side. How they ever got the cables pulled up and over the mountain is amazing.


 
Two guys getting ready to go and onto the glacier.
