Here are a few of my favourite moments captured in the mountains. Be it skiing, climbing or camping, the sun the wind and the snow fill our senses with all the vastness of the outdoors. So climb high and look far!
Time to get going.

Glacier sans nom 2, sud-ouest de Kara-Say Nord, Ak-Shirak, Kirghizstan. C’est le moment de profiter de la descente, avec une neige encore legère. Au fond les sommets qui bordent la vallée de Kara-Say, d’environ 4500 m d’altitude.
I go out to try my pulk solo in the Hauts Plateaux du Vercors
