Very neat - it's fun to cruise around people spotting - looks to be some sort of crevasse rescue training going on below the Midi...

Good spot, missed that one, so far I've found a dozen or so climbers and two skiers.

Thanks for that it's fantastic, I'm viewing it on an iPad. There's a guy walking across to the helbroner, I can zoom in so close I can see his face close enough to identify him yet the guys on the crevasse still seem along way off, any ideas why that is. Counted about eighteen people so far, wonder how many can be seen.

It is indeed splendid. My guess would be somewhere near the Petit Flambeau.

You are way ahead of me on the climbers! 2 skiers below the Cap and 2 coming back below the Cosmiques
 SteveD 28 May 2015
In reply to pneame:

5 on the Cosmiques, 6 on the Tour Ronde(?) 2 below the Cosmiques Hut, 2 on the Pointe Adolphe Rey(?), the tail of a helicopter behind the Midi ridge.

I was bored last night.

To be fair I was scrutinising it rather closely as I skied it at Easter!

I measured it on the map and the GP is in the region of 40k away. A remarkable image.
