Charmant Som
Charmant Som is a mountain in the French department of Isère, rising to 1,867 metres in the Chartreuse Mountains in the Alps. It is made up of limestone, but its relief is less pronounced than that of the surrounding mountains, which is why it is covered with alpine meadows, the origin of its name.Photo: Gemini1980, Public domain.
