London
I have been making the first of the Elevation drawings using a tiny amount of the 100ml of glacial water I collected from Lac Blanc (2352m) with acrylic paint on paper. Starting at a height of 1252m, the walk up to Lac Blanc gained 1100m of ascent and about 100m of descent to reach the lake. I wanted to show this as a linear journey, rather than a plan drawing of the terrain, showing instead a line of elevation. The walk took 3h28m and included some photography on the way up.
