The low clouds are spreading, and the high clouds are descending.

Back at the Refuge de Turia: a ridge of Mont de la Gurraz in the rain.

This fox was running away before I spotted him.

Chasing after the fox: looking back at the refuge almost lost in fog.

The fox must have gone left; I went right and found these chamois.
|
|
Guess they saw me too...
|
|
After a while they came closer again, including this baby.
