- Image: I took this photo during summer from the ski lift at Secteur Mont Chéry ski resort (elevation approximately 1700m), above the village of Les Gets. The intermediate black mountain with the precipice is Tête à l'Âne of 2800m elevation. In the background, the jagged rocky peak on the left is Aiguille du Midi (about 3850m), while the big snowy mountain is Mont Blanc du Tacul (about 4250m high). The main peak of Mont Blanc is off to the right, shrouded in cloud. — Firth m — CC BY 4.0 — https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0
