A hearth at 2,320m in the Pyrenees was burning charcoal 10,000 years ago. A new open-access radiocarbon database of 124 dates shows the high mountains were never empty, just persistently misread. #Archaeology #Paleoclimate #Pyrenees https://www.anthropology.net/p/a-10000-year-radiocarbon-record-shows
A 10,000-Year Radiocarbon Record Shows the High Pyrenees Were Never Empty

A new open-access database of 124 dated samples from Catalonia’s Aigüestortes National Park overturns the old assumption that high-altitude landscapes were marginal, seasonal, or uninhabited

Amazing to read that *Les Obagues de Ratera*, a rockshelter at 2.320 m of altitude in the Pyrenees , shows traces of continuous human occupation for a timespan of 10.000 years, since the end of the last glacial period to the beginning of the XXth century. #mountains #pyrenees

Les #Pyrénées c'est moche !
Lac d'Estaens, à la frontière entre la France et l'Espagne.... "hola... hola... hola ... " ... un moment j'ai faillis dire "olé..." en croisant d'autres personnes.
Une rando dans le dure, en partant des Forges d'Abel, en vallée d'Aspe.

2/ Above the Embalse de Bachimaña Alto we met snowfields and rising before us was the chain of mountain peaks marking the border with France. Easiest crossing seems to be the Puerto de Marcadeau leading down to the Refuge Wallon. Still lots of snow though and crampons/ice axe are essential for a safe crossing. We relaxed and ate lunch by the lakeside before making the ardous knee jerking descent back to Baños de Panticosa.

Glorious hike today up to and beyond the Embalse de Bachimaña Alto. Stunning scenery. This walk up through forests to the waterfalls was just the start of a long but ultimately thoroughly enjoyable mountain day.

Baños de Panticosa, the start of the days hike. Up through forests to sensational walkways and beautiful waterfalls
