In the heart of the Écrins massif, hidden in the steep folds of the Grand Pic de La Meije, an exploration led by two local children reveals a long-hidden treasure: an unexplored canyon stretching over 2000 metres from the flanks of the Girose glacier to the valley floor. The revelation of this canyon, brought to light by the effects of global warming, opens up fascinating prospects for scientific research. This discovery represents an exceptional opportunity for two experts, glaciologist Lucas Davaze and botanist Sébastien Lavergne, who are preparing to deepen their work on the novel ecosystems thus revealed.
