The Great Sure

La Grande Sure or "The Great Sure" is a summit in Chartreuse mountains,
just below 2000m (precisely 1920m of altitude).


My house is facing the north west face of the Great Sure, the view could be worse !


Spring, Summer, Fall or Winter, the landscape is magnificent.


Below, two views, toward the south, from the top of "The Great Sure".


I just love  the  sea of clouds....

Colourful mushroom


This picture was taken in a forest in the mountains Chartreuse, during a walk in Spring.


Fomitopsis pinicola is the scientific name of this mushroom, I believe.

I have not been able to resit and I left the footpath to observe
this colourful mushroom and to take a few pictures.
