Isolated trees of mountain pine (Pinus mugo ssp. uncinata, foreground) and larch (Larix decidua, far background) above the limit of the closed forest, near to the trail from Grand Parcher to the Tête d'Amont. Part of the Ecrins massif can be seen in the background of the photo, with Pic de Clouzis (3465 m) prominently appearing on the right side.
