Here’s a photo taken today of the Aiguille du Midi base station in Chamonix, showing you how the building works are progressing. The cable car is one of the highest in the work, and remains largely unaltered since its inauguration over 50 years ago. The base station is being revamped extensively, and a hotel complex is being developed around the station, with landscaped gardens between. The builders are doing a great job, and the building is much more in fitting with the importance of this cable car for the local economy, and all the climbers and skiers who use it each day.
