The winter season is over, and spring is technically here, even if the temperatures here in Tignes in the French Alps beg to differ. Despite the ongoing lack of snowfall, the pistes here remain fun and open and I hope that the snowy adventures can last until the end of the season. Meanwhile it's time to get slushy in the park, and start hiking a bit more! I'm excited to go hunting for the spring wildflowers and see what animals have awoken. The birdsong in the morning has evolved dramatically over the last two weeks and I'm so ready to be in renewed nature. With my camera, of course.
Spring at 2100 meters is not really like spring elsewhere. Obviously it’s colder, but it’s more fragile too. Driving down the mountain to Bourg Saint Maurice is like skipping ahead 6 weeks to the end of spring, where the crocuses are in full bloom and everyone is in a light jumper! The snow recedes and the air is thick and warm. In one month I’ll be by the sea again, one way or another.
Are you in Tignes and you’d like to meet up to have your photo taken?
