Goulandiere

Went for a short day @goulandiere today. The hike was painful after yesterdays long walk, but 220 meters seemed pretty short in comparison! It was another day that made me happy to be in france: a beautiful drive through the gorges du Furon, the grassy plains around Villard de lans, the gorges de la borne and then climbing on 35 meter perfect limestone routes... sigh
