This little tavel bug has been all over the Chamonix valley with me in my backpack this week. He has been down the Vallee Blanche, off-piste skiing over the Grands Montets and elsewhere in the valley. If you would like his GPS tracks to look at in Google Earth, do drop me a message.

I dropped him in this cache - well, I would have done but it was frozen into the rock - but I have checked him out again as I think it would have stayed there until spring. I'd like him to keep moving so I will returm him to the UK with me after his little holiday in the snow so that he can continue and not freeze up under lots of snow.

Picked this one up and as it is in a race, I'll take it to the French Alps with me on the 23rd - watch out for it being dropped that week. That should get it some miles...
