There had to be some reason that Des Diablerets Glacier, a massive hunk of ice on top of the Vaudois Alps, east of Lake Geneva, was named for the spirits of the dark.
From horizon to horizon, the snowcapped peaks of the Alps crowd the landscape, dominated by Dents du Midi, on the southern border, and Mont Blanc, in France.
A half-mile square, more or less, Des Diablerets slopes gently toward the valley, a benign snowfield disturbed only by long lines of ski lift towers and the periodic thuck-thuck-thuck of sightseeing helicopters dropping off skiers and snowboarders.
