More holes in the forest floor

The Swiss Jura from September to December 2011

You may not find this terribly rewarding unless you're included here, so this is a good time for casual and random browsers to turn back before they get too caught up in the sweep and majesty of the proceedings and can't let go.

First, the forest of Petit Cunay, in the Jura mountains

Wild and wonderful woods, worth poking round in, in the forest of Petit Cunay, 25 September 2011

And some big holes in it

Kristin's predictable curiosity

Now, let's have a good look at this thing.

"Stop saying 'Don't lean over too far'".

Anyone down there?

The Creux d'Enfer of Petit Cunay

We're back from adventures in Southern Italy, and here's the Creux d'Enfer of Petit Cunay, 22 October 2011

October snow down in the hollows

Perhaps the Snow God will be bountiful this year, at last.

The Château de Puthod

We're visiting the Château de Puthod, near Grande Grand in France, just over the frontier from La Dôle, 23 October 2011. That's the Castle of Puthod there, or what's left of it.

Lost in the Sèche de Gimel

Alert to intriguing possibilities

Like this one

"How'd you get up there?"

"Throw down a rope or a scarf, or something."

"This will work."

"That's no good either."

"It's easy, you just throw up your scarf, catch it on something, and climb out."

"That sometimes works, sometimes not."

"Thrown down a rope, or a scarf, or something."

"Nothing's ever easy these days."

"So now what?"

A clear limestone flat, with really really slippery verglas ice on it.

And holes in it

Climbing back out into daylit meadows, at dusk

La St George

In the cliffs above La St George (which is above the village of St George), there are WWII military installations and fake cliffs hiding ladders down the real cliffs. Kristin is having a look at some of them now, 8 December 2011.
