Top Tweets for #Bossons
Bossons was the lowest‑descending glacier in the #Alps, almost touching the forest. Losing that tongue feels like losing a cathedral spire, except this one was alive, moving, breathing ice. #Ruskin would've called it a moral wound as much as a physical one.

The year before the hole appeared in Bossons (here 10th Sept 2022), it still retained its endless tongue spreading across the valley! 😍
A vision that gave me goosebumps each time! 🤍
Now lost forever.
We are losing beauty,
in addition to our ability to live on this planet
@VictorSinclair3 @Le_Figaro Par contre les glaciers fondent, donc ce n'est ni noir ni blanc ! J'ai pris cette photo à #Chamonix la semaine dernière (glacier des #Bossons). La différence par rapport à 1900 due à la fonte est SAISISSANTE ! Les gens pensent à tort qu'il y a un camp A et un camp B.
Revisiting old friends... but haven't found new buddies 😥
As this low elevation moraine vegetates and stabilises it will become increasingly difficult anyway... 🌲

Énorme chute d'un boc de glace dans le massif du Mont Blanc a l'instant 😲 , pris au niveau de "la jonction" en haut des bossons.

#Bossons proglacial lake on 30th July, the day before the spill began, as seen from Jonction path. The draining was completed on 08th Aug. 🌊❄️

Bossons proglacial lake has just... gone! 🌊❄️🔥
Appeared in 2018 following downwasting of the glacier tongue, it has been artificially drained this summer after a channel was dug in the ice to allow overflow of the 13,000 m3 water.

Including some of my subfossil wood samples and very nice archeological artefacts. Some quite recent as the shoes I found at the tongue of #Bossons Glacier last summer (see link below), that turned to be WW2!

#Bossons glacier is littered with thousands of debris from two plane crashes occurred in 1950 and 1966.
But contrary to the other remains, the two found today between 50 and 5 meters from the glacier front don't seem to be related to the planes... (?)

Finally managed to recover this log located 2 meters below the crest at #Bossons glacier. Though extensive bark patches are present, will be challenging to date it (only ~40 rings). Surprise, it also shows signs of previous cutting... 😱🫢❓
