Break in the storm
After a strenuous climb over rocks that used to be covered by a glacier, we finally reach a small plateau suitable for bivouacking, near small streams. The cloudy, windy sunset leaves little hope for the next day, and storm clouds gathered above us over the night. As we hurry to break camp before the rain arrives in the morning, an unexpected break forms in the clouds and allows the sun to briefly illuminates the sharp peaks of Pelvoux. Cotton grass sways in the foreground while a rainbow completes this fleeting and dramatic scene.
