at least you can get high and forget about the fact there are no mountains around you

I am still waiting for a rider shot standing or riding the mushroom rock near the Eiger.

@valioto
Colorado representing here.... We can get high in the awesome mountain we do have. Win win?

Majestic photo. The picturesque mountains covered with snow in the background with the rider getting ready to make his descent. Then the cross sets as a reminder (for those that believe) that God is the creator of all this majesty.

Is that the Memorial for 26" wheels?

MPec (Feb 20, 2014 at 12:32)

actually Morgin is located in Switzerland, not in France! And the big mountains are "les dents-du-midi", in Switzerland as well. But yes it's very close to the frontier.
