Frequently Asked Questions

Where is Midi Arête?

The Midi Arête (Arête des Cosmiques) is an exposed ridge at approximately 3,800 metres on the Aiguille du Midi in the Mont Blanc Massif, France. It is the starting point for routes on the Vallée Blanche and for ascents of Mont Blanc via the Three Monts Ridge, and is crossed by skiers and mountaineers throughout the winter and spring seasons.

The Midi Arête is a serious and exposed alpine terrain requiring crampons, ice axe, and competence in rope work. The narrow ridge drops steeply on both sides and cornices can be present after heavy snowfall. It is not suitable for beginners or those without alpine experience.

I was looking for a large print that had personal meaning for my husband and me. We love biking and hiking around the Matterhorn, and Zermatt has always felt like a magical place to us. The print is incredibly sharp, vibrant, and beautifully produced. It’s exactly what I was hoping for and looks perfect above our mantel.

The calendar is beautiful, I was looking for something that reminded me of home, and it’s perfect. Only small downside is that it’s printed back-and-front, so you can’t look at/take notes for the next month without removing from wall.

Gorgeous calendars. Beautiful photos. Great quality and value for money too, strongly recommend!

I got two of the Chamonix calendars for Christmas presents after we spent a magical couple of months admiring the area. They are beautiful! Delivery was quick and they came in good condition. We actually had the pleasure of meeting the photographer behind these stunning photos at an alpine hut, and he is just as funny and kind as he is talented! Definitely recommend supporting this authentic small business.

This picture is exactly as described and how it looks. It’s printed on good paper and doesn’t have a glossy finish which doesn’t make it extra reflective when hanged. The colors are great in person (photo doesn’t do it justice). Highly recommend!
