'White plateau-1.'

	On the Hauts Plateaux du Vercors, the southern highest part of the Vercors, even in summer the uninhabited plateau seems to be covered by snow. It is the eroded limestone which covers the surface for large tracts. There are no roads that cross this splendid nature reserve. Photo Mick Palarczyk.
