Our annual pilgrimage to the Canigou was cut short this year as there was quite a heavy fall of snow the night before. We made it about half way up from 'base camp' ( Refuge des Cortalets) before turning around due to about a foot of snow and very bad visibility.
Sods law, the skies are blue, the sun is shining and the Canigou is winking down on us as I type. O well, there's always next year!

| Looks like it's Autumn |
Oh such a shame! We spent my birthday 16th Sept in Grenoble many years ago and in the mountains above we too had a snowball fight - never thought I would be doing that on my birthday.
