Today we planned on riding to Spain via the col du Tentes. The day started out warm and humid. Here you can see the steam wafting off Warren.

Cycling up col du Tentes
We had the road almost to ourselves. Passing only two other cyclist on the way up.

A rock slide blocked the road near the top of col du Tentes.
Near the top the road was blocked to car traffic, with rocks on the road.
We made the top:
