Caer Caradoc
Lambs scattered in the sky.
Starting the ascent.
Julia is by now an experienced hiker.
Elena was 7 months pregnant.
Darkness already looming on our first summit.
Julia taking the lead.
On this side, the sky is blue.
Waiting for maman.
Towards the other summit.
Met him on the way.
Company.
Caer Caradoc.
It's easy when it's flat.
Although you still need a break once in a while.
Back on the road.
Gentle slope but a long way to go.
Caer Caradoc doesn't seem any closer.
Almost on our 3rd summit.
While mummy's still descending from the 2nd one.
Will Julia be there first?
Going up and down.
Dark clouds coming back.
This happened.
Winter fighting Spring.
And they're gone.
Carrying on, with uncertain weather.
Caer Caradoc closer than ever.
It's a steep descent before getting to its flank.
Now officially attacking Caer Caradoc.
Stairways to the top.
We walked all the hill in front, and now on Caer Caradoc.
On top (Fabrice alone).
Elena and Julia sheltered by this rock.
Too much light and colors to make good pictures.
Back together to close the loop.
The mountain opening a gate of rocks to say goodbye.
Rocks on the edge of Caer Caradoc.
Time to go back down.
Crossing through the fields. Extenuated.
