Took the bus up to the Gran Monets car park, and the Gran Monets gondola up to Plan Joran
...
...
We took a new path that heads for this pylon
...
...
The path is quite rough in places
...
This path then reaches a track where you need to go down and turn right
...
There are many small streams and waterfalls on the mountainside
...
...
...
The track reaches a viewpoint with spectacular views of the Glacier d'Argentiere
...
...
...
...
...
The glacier flows quite rapidly over the ice fall and you can hear it groaning and breaking
...
Return by the same track and continue down to Croix de Lognan
...
Continue in the same direction into woodland, heading west and decending gently

The alpin pastures turn into pine forest as you descend
...
Bee orchids

The path emerges in the valley close to the helicopter base
...
And we followed the river back into Chamonix
