Legend
This drawing represents the small valley situated at the basis of a part of the extensive glacier La Valpeline, contiguous to that of La Valsorey. The chalêt on the left is the one described by the author, when he speaks of the Great St. Bernard, into which he was received with so much hospitality, when taken by the pilgrim, after the tremendous storm he had to encounter on that passage.
