You can take a cable car over glacier-covered Mont Blanc (which, by the way, is Europe's tallest mountain) all the way to Italy! I heard about this from Rick Steves, so I thought I'd give it a try. I didn't make it beyond the border station, but it was so cloudy on the Italian side, that I didn't miss much. I could probably label this gallery Antarctica!
