When the river become crazy

Last week in the pyrénées, where we are leaving with Fabrice Poueyto, we had the biggest rise water level of the century for the Gave de Pau.

The water level become very high very fast destructing all on his way.

It was the consequence of a very hight snow level and a lot of rain.

Kayaking is impossible at this time, a lot of roads goes down, a lot of houses were distructed by the river.
