After my fiasco the previous weekend, I was in dire need of a success, so I picked a very easy hike: the Pic du Cap Roux in the Esterel Mountains. In truth, picking this excursion had more to do with the iffy weather forecast than anything else; indeed, no sooner had I reached the summit that very strong winds brought clouds and rain. I made it back to the car drenched but happy, and yes, I ate my picnic at home...
