Rochers de Faverge, Saleve, Switzerland,

The last time that I remember being on the Rochers de Faverge would have been in 1951 or 52. It used to be somewhere to aim for if one was walking up the Grand Saleve fairly near Geneva. We used to get there, find somewhere to sit on the jumble of huge stones/rocks, make a hot drink using a little meta block heater and, most of all, try to keep the rather energetically inquisitive mountain goats away – still, at times they were preferable to the Swiss mountain cows which I reckon were about as friendly as an English bull. You can find pictures on the net of the Rochers de Faverge.
