January 13, 2023,La traversée du viaduc.🤗 vendredi 13.1.2023 🫨
Small outing between two rain showers, in the surroundings, taking advantage of passing through the Day viaduct and nice meeting at the exit with three chamois.😉 then climb from Vallorbe on the Mont d'Orsière pass, descent on the Valley, climb on the Mollendruz pass and back from Isle sometimes with showers.👍🙂
