Hikers and climbers might gravitate toward the adret, the slope that soaks up the sun while the other side stays cooler and shaded. It's the warm, inviting stretch of the mountain where snow melts first, plants thrive, and the day feels a little more lively. Next time you're outdoors, see if you can look on the bright side!
Example: In early spring, the adret showed patches of grass, while the opposite slope stayed snowy and quiet.
