video of the day

This saturday i went hiking to the region of Lac de Salanfe. I tooked the car until the end of the valley of van, where it’s allowed.
The day was still beatiful when i started the hike, i took the path that goes up to Lac de Salanfe, with one hour of hike i passed at Lac de Salanfe and at the auberge, from this point i follow for a couple minutes the path to Col du Jorat until a cross, where there is a signpost to Refuge Dents du Midi, i follow the path to NW, at about 2300m it started to snow softly, at 2800m there was about 20cm of snow, already a lot to a beginning of October.
I went inside the refuge to eat my sandwich, the weather does not improved, it continued snowing, always a lot of fog towards Dents du Midi.
At about 3 p.m. i started the return, in 1h30m i was back at the car by following the same path.
