The chronicle of Fin du Monde
The ice sheet, 2907 m up, kept by odette
Every line is a record the land wrote; the names in quotes are the owner's words. What the chronicle does not say did not happen. Most lines fade after half a year; the kept ones stay.
Animals here this month: arctic fox (denning).
