Photo de la grande crête et du sommet du Mont Lafayette, seul pic important du Presidential Range des montagnes blanches à ne pas être nommé selon un président américain historique mais bien du nom du Général et Marquis Français qui a été particulièrement instrumental dans la guerre d'indépendance américaine , puis un personnage important de la révolution Française et opposant de Napoléon.
Photo panoramique en 10 clichés verticaux assemblés soigneusement, pris par une superbe journée ensoleillée à partir du Mont Lincoln. Dans la version large du panorama on distingue un peu le centre de ski de Cannon mountain sur l'autre versant de la vallée Franconia Notch (site du célèbre Old Man of the Mountain), et le refuge de montagne de Greenleaf Hut dans le milieu de la crête.

Photo of the long ridge and summit of Mount Lafayette, the only important summit of the Presidential Range in the White Mountains that was not named after a US president but instead named after the French General and Marquis that was particularly instrumental in the American Revolution, afterwards an important figure of the French Revolution and opponent of Napoleon.
Panorama assembled together from 10 vertical pictures carefully stitched, taken on a superb sunny day from Mont Lincoln. In the large version of the panorama we can observe the ski center of Cannon Mountain on the other side of the Franconia Notch (Site of the famous NH Old Man of the Mountain), and the Greenleaf Hut in the middle of the ridge.

Ciao Bruno,
beautiful image, very spacious and with a great depth. For me, that adore the mountains, is a pleasure to see this photo. Bravo.
Ciao
Paolo.

Bonjour Bruno,
Fort beau point de vue et un beau pano souligne par la continuite de la roche en bas, aussi une bonne progression en hauteur de gauche a droite, ce serait top d'avoir une personne (idealement habillee en rouge) sur le roc a droite.
Bonne journee JY

Hi Bruno,

The view toward the plains is fantastic. I like this type of terrain because of the challenges and excellent vews they offer. Nice pano shot with very good details and natural colours. A nice place to spend time hiking I think. Thanks Bruno.
