Pyrenees Day 5 Port de Boucharo

On a hot sunny morning, we walked along a spectacular path to the border with Spain. Port de Boucharo is a high mountain pass, in the Pyrénées, between the border of France and Spain, at an elevation of 2.270m (7,447ft). We had constant company from Griffin Vultures - at one stage there were more than 20 in the air. Great to see some true 'alpines - the Gentian and Mountain Buttercup and one endemic reptile the Pyrenean Rock Lizard.
