Last days of snow (let's hope so)
Good shining sun yesterday morning, we went for a ride toward Le Bourget Lake, 50 miles from home. Cold morning, but no snow around home... Let's go!

First stop under "Dent de Crolles", 20 miles east of Grenoble : white mountains, but dry road in the valley, no problem.

Later we were rather surprised to find snow in the fields, despite altitude being the same, clearly this area is colder...

Even on one side of the lake, water was still frozen...

At the end of the afternoon, South wind came, bringing some less cold air, but also rain for the evening!

I hope now snow will not come in the valleys any more - OK for ski resorts in altitude, but it's enough for this winter!

Beautiful pics as usual. And I agree, enough of this cold/snow and on to warmer weather.
