My photo postcard of the Col de la Cayolle between the departments of Alpes-Maritimes and Alpes-de-Haute-Provence in France.

First week the road was open following the winter, a dramatic climb up to the sources of the river Var, the marmottes and other wildlife protected by the Parc National du Mercantour.
