This is a photo taken yesterday by Sarah of me with Maximus, running up to the Col du Bonhomme, one of the high passes on the Tour du Mont Blanc. As you can see, there was a beautiful coating of fresh snow on the ground from 1800m upwards, so things got a bit interesting higher up. As anyone who has been snowshoeing with us will know, Max is quite a big fan of the snow, so was in heaven. Literally his Christmas had come early!
