Program Description

Event Details

For our 2nd travel presentation of the 2025 series, we will travel to the Alps! In August 2023, Ed and Karen Bassett completed the Haute Route, a 120 mile hiking route through Chamonix, Verbier, Zermatt and lots of little villages in between. Come see beautiful photos and hear about their adventures on this alternative to the popular Tour du Mont Blanc route. 

We will meet at 6pm in the Hopefull/Discovery Room at the South Branch Library. The library closes at 6pm so please feel free to park in the South Lot on Harris and Washington and walk down the stairs.
