2024-06-03 Ojos del Garona, Spain

Trying to escape a weather front, and get back to the starting point staying dry. Well, it didn‘t work out. We got fairly wet, and even got some nasty hail, the despite little hailstones, pelt our faces a bit, due to a harsh wind.
Stil interesting as we observed 11 Griffon Vultures (far away) and as this place is the source of the Garonne River, the starts in the Pyrenees in Spain and flows over 600 km through France to enter the Atlantic near Bordeaux.
Great image showing how steep the hill is!

I like the stoic climber. It took me awhile to see the sunlit mountains in the background because I was so focused on the person.

What a lovely capture of our mountainous hike! We are having a cold spell here too. I hung out the washing this morning, and was frozen by the time I got back in - despite the sunshine!

Awesome image with that lone figure silhouetted against the skyline to give a focal point to grab one's attention, and a wonderful sense of scale
