In reply to James FR:
I suspect all/most of the higher summits wre in the clouds today - I walked up a hill in the Queyras from which there's normally a good view of the Barre des Ecrins, Pelvoux, etc in one direction & Mt Viso in the other. All were invisible
And some of the higher summits in the Queyras have some fresh snow although I suspect it'll soon go
