Holidays shots
Spent a month in the Pyrenees catching up with family and loading up on foie gras, magrets, wine and cheese. Back in Oz now. The clock is still a bit offset so are the eating times but getting there slowly.
This is a serie from Gavarnie which is a great place to hike. The tip of the cirque is the border between Spain and France. The elevation from the top of the cascade to the ridge is ~1300m. The visible waterfall is a bit over 400m in height so the Eiffel tower would well fit under it with another 100m to go or so. The whole elevation to the top is a bit over 3000m from sea level.
It's hard to grasp the size of it until you see the long line of people walking up the rock face then you have a sense of scale.
Takes about 1h from Gavarnie to the hotel and another 40min to the cascade.
