Tips
From here you have a view of the Glacier Blanc. This glacier has been receding faster and faster in recent years. The erosion of the rock where the glacier used to be can be clearly seen in the rock walls.

In addition to the glacier (which is in retreat), the view of the Pelvoux peaks is very impressive (so much so that I left my expensive ski jacket behind)
