This image presents a wide view of a snow-covered mountain ski resort in Valtournenche, Italy, under a clear, deep blue sky. A multi-person chairlift system dominates the central and right portions of the frame, with thick steel cables extending diagonally upwards. Several chair carriers are visible, with the closest two in the center-right each occupied by two individuals. The terrain below consists of extensive snowfields featuring numerous ski tracks and some groomed sections with distinct corduroy patterns. Approximately twenty small, dark figures, identified as skiers or snowboarders, are actively descending the slopes on the left side of the image. Rocky, snow-dusted mountain peaks and ridges form the background and occupy the upper left quadrant. Small yellow marker poles are sparsely distributed across the snow on the left-hand slopes. Shadows cast by terrain undulations and the chairlift system are visible on the snow surface.
