Day starts with only a little diaphanous high cloud in the far distance but at around 90″ in the cumulus cauldrons get bubbling and build rapidly to produce what was rather an overshadowed day from there on. At about 2’40” rain lashes in sheets across the upper valley and Bourg St. Maurice. The day is also marked by the transhumance: the cows have arrived as the French holidays finish and most humans leave!
