in june 2003, Mimmi and her brother Fredrik and me and my brother Sebastian, went towards the top of Mont Blanc in France. it is the highest peak in the Alps and with its 4807 metres (15771 feet) it is the top of Europe. the trekking lasted almost a week and here are some tempting (?) shots:

the first day almost down at where we took off from. mimmi is getting some water.

the first sunset. this last picture is taken from a tunnel we passed through.

early on the second day we met some curious mountaingoats.

in an environment like this it is impossible to take the wrong path. no matter direction the view makes one humble.

heading towards basecamp, the scenery is overwhelming.

the glacier de Téte Rousse at approx 3250 metres (10663 feet) where we had our basecamp and where Fredrik and Mimmi stayed. the background shows where me and Sebastian went up the following day.

the view from the basecamp.
