THE LIVING MAP
The mapped place
La Rosière is recorded at 45.629° N, 6.850° E. Its catalogue reference reaches 2,641 metres. A modern resort map compresses terrain, exposure and access into a diagram. This exhibition keeps the underlying contour visible so the place does not become only a list of facilities.
