Il se trouve en avant du fort du Petit Minou, sur la commune de Plouzané.
Haut de 26 mètres, il se trouve à 34 mètres au-dessus du niveau de la mer. Allumé en 1848 il est automatisé depuis 1989 et commandé depuis Brest. Son nom viendrait de min (pointe, en breton), au pluriel.
It is located in front of the Petit Minou fort, in the commune of Plouzané.
It is 26 metres high and 34 metres above sea level. Fired in 1848, it has been automated since 1989 and controlled from Brest. Its name comes from min (point, in Breton), in the plural.
Flux sur Mer is a new sim, that opened on june 6th. The place is quite nice, with awesome creativity....
The Mer de Glace is the largest glacier in France, 7km long and 200m deep. The Mer de Glace is a valley glacier located on the northern slopes of the Mont Blanc massif, in the French Alps.
Mers-les-Bains is a seaside resort and of tourism of the Somme, located on the littoral of the Manche, located near the mouth of Bresle, i.e. just in extreme cases enters Picardy and Normandy. This seaside resort has a pebble beach (and sand with low tide) approximately a kilometer length as well as high chalk cliffs.
Top of these last, close to the statue of Notre-Dame, emerges a vast panorama (accessible to foot while passing in front of the church or conveys some by the plate while following the direction of Blengues) from where it is possible to see the sea, the city close to Tréport, its trade and marina, the city of Eu with in particular its castle and its collegial, then in north to see Ault and the hâble éponyme, in direction of Bay of Somme. In clear weather, the Picardy coast is revealed with the horizon until Marquenterre. Very close to Seas is the Bois de Cise, attached to the commune of Ault, superb residential glazing bar which gives on the sea.
Many of these little sinks within the marshier areas of Mer Bleue Bog (see location below) can be deceptively benign-looking, especially at the beginning of mild winters like the one we're off to this year. Our spring and autumn walks have shown that water in some of them can easily top a 12" pair of waterproof boots, right Soaker?
"That's right, Edna, but you were not supposed to add that part."
Anyway, when it's mild outside, like today, a two or three kilometer walk home with a wet foot would be uncomfortable but not likely to do any damage, but if a cold snap moves in overnight and there's enough insulating snow over the thin spots to keep them that way, a wet foot could be serious business. Of course this all concerns Dad, not me; a few shakes of my paw will rid me of any excess water.
So you see in this photo that Dad was sticking close to the higher ground on the left on our way in, while I was unconcerned in traversing the middle, as was the deer which you can see preceded us earlier this morning.
It's heartening to see that though deer are scarcely seen in our area any more as humanity encroaches, this winter's quantity of tracks are proving that they are still around in fairly good numbers, as are coyotes. Moose numbers are low, however, with only one confirmed set of tracks so far.
