About this work
The Ubayette valley, as seen fron the serre de la platte ridge. On the background, the Larche mountain pass on the french-italian border is visible. The Ubayette springs lie in the Lauzanier valley. The entering of the Lauzanier valley is visible on the right bellow the pass. Another visible feature is the opposition between the sunny side (locally called Adret, here on the left), and the shadowed side (locally called Ubac, on the right of the picture). The sunny side was historically deforested and cultivated, and stil is partially cultivated today. It also habors all the villages and hamlets existing in the valley, plus the road. The shadowed side is covered by a forest of larches. Alpes-de-Haute-Provence département, France.
