When I was looking at photos of Moustiers-Sainte-Marie in Southeastern #France for #MountainMonday, I found this one with the #waterfall that runs through the #village, so #WaterfallWednesday is covered as well!

If you look closely, you'll see the golden star that's twinkling above #Moustiers, suspended between two cliffs on a 225m long chain. ✨

Nouvelle cartographie sur ma boutique, cette fois c'est une carte géologique du territoire de l'ancienne Provence (inclut donc Var, Bouches-du-Rhône, Alpes de Haute Provence, et un bout du Vaucluse et des Alpes-Maritimes - oui ça fait du monde)

Ca va donner une belle affiche imprimée sur du papier Fine Arts 310g, elle est d'assez belle taille pour voir les détails (60x94 cm)

“Majestic Larix”

Larches are deciduous conifers in the genus Larix, of the family Pinaceae.

Growing from 20 to 45 metres tall, they are native to the cooler regions of the northern hemisphere, where they are found in lowland forests in the high latitudes, and high in mountains further south.

Although they are conifers, larches are deciduous trees that lose their needles in the autumn.

“Down to the valley”

The Ruisseau du Raisin is a tributary of the Ruisseau du Chardonnet, which in turn is a tributary of the Rivière La Clarée, which gives its name to this splendid valley down below.

“A beautiful autumn in the Clarée Valley”

The Haute Vallée de la Clarée is a wild and magnificent setting above the village of Névache, in the Cerces massif (Hautes-Alpes). It's particularly beautiful in autumn, when the larch forests take on shimmering colors.

“Flowing Clarée in front of La Main de Crépin”

Here, the Moutet stream flows into the Clarée, which continues down the valley towards Névache, towards the Durance.

The Durance is a much weaker torrent than its tributaries the Clarée and the Guisane, which are nonetheless very small in comparison. If the name Durance predominates over those of these two torrents, it is probably because the Durance valley is an important and ancient communication route, whereas the Clarée and Guisane valleys are dead ends.

“Alpine chalet above the Clarée valley”

Alpine chalets are small dwellings usually found far from the main roads.

They are often (but not always) reached by 4×4 in summer, and on foot, snowshoes or skis in winter.

In the past, these chalets served as summer residences for the farmers and peasants of the Alpine valleys. During the coldest months of the year, the animals stayed in the cowsheds, but in the summer months, they and their carers moved to the higher alpine pastures. They were milked in the meadows, and the cheese was made on the spot.

The tradition lives on, but it's rare for traditional ways of doing things to be preserved in their entirety.

The magnificent Fontcouverte cascade on La Clarée river, near Névache, is a protected site. The cascade takes its name from a miraculous spring that was partly hidden and covered by a bush: “the covered fountain”.

“European larch trees dressed for autumn”

These European larch are an exception among their kind. They shed their needles in autumn, which turn yellow, red and brown before dropping. It is the only conifer in Europe to do this.

It is sometimes called the mountain oak, because of the exceptional wood it produces. Slow-growing, it is the most durable and strongest of the coniferous woods.

Rot-proof, it is used for boat design, roofing frames, shingles and railway sleepers.

“Bend, resist, thrive”

Some areas are especially subject to the influence of the wind, and in particular strong prevailing winds, i.e. those blowing most often from a privileged direction.

Unlike animals, plants cannot escape these winds. From the moment they germinate until they die out, they are constantly subject to the effects of this ecological factor.
