25 February 2002, Argentière, France
Waiting for the train, these members of the mountain tribes seem
to have been trained to survive the dangers of their native habitat
as they are sitting on the platform edge. Their training pays off.
They know that the trains arriving at their platform do arrive
from the Chamonix direction only, and spotting the train arriving
in the distance they exercice this well-trained step backwards
in order to keep the train at least at arm's length.
