Aug 2023 - Ascent from Les Confins. Rest day for Gemma. The Aravis Range is made up of a succession of combes with calcareous peaks rising above. The combe of Tardevant is situated in the middle and is the only one to have a lake. Great walk this, another walk that I enjoyed four years ago. Excellent forestry sections and two magnificent glacial bowls. The summit of Tardevant was tiny but a great viewpoint. Mont Blanc and the surrounding eastern Alps once again looked magnificent as did all the closer mountains. Absolutely loved it. Warning - photo of a sunburnt lower leg.
