Can you believe this is Corsica, France?
An island in the Mediterranean.
It’s from an excellent trip report of a 6 days, 95km trek through Corsica in May.
That’s the Trailblaze blog edited by Johannes Huwe, posted in both German and English.
Though snow has been rare on the island since 1979 (presumably due to climate change) the group had significant problems with snow and melt water in 2009.
Kev Reynolds calls the GR20 high-level route across Corsica one of the toughest 3 treks in Western Europe.
