@daniel: There's no dam in the gorge, though. Was the project scrapped again?

Going up the village to the antennas allows you to have a breathtaking view of the upper Têt valley. The eastern end of the Perche plateau, which carries Mont-Louis, La Cabanasse, Saint-Pierre and Planès, is dissected by the Têt and its tributaries. The landscape changes radically in a few hundred meters, the valley steepening by 500m. This topographic break point in the profile of a watercourse is called a *knick point*. It marks the place where regressive erosion has reached today following the global uplift that the region has been undergoing for around 10 Ma.

The path leaving the village offers a last view of the Cerdan landscape and the Perche plateau before heading towards the mountainous landscapes of the Orri valley. This final glance is an opportunity to visualize the layout of the three generations of flattening: the Carlit and Campcardos plateaus, the Carlit ponds and the Perche and Quillane plateaus. We can also see the imprint that the ice has left on the landscape. The tongue of ice which descended the Têt valley barely 25,000 years ago tore up, transported and deposited approximately 50 m of blocks which today form the magnificent frontal moraine of Mont-Louis and which is highlighted by the forest.

It looks spectacular, but it's not that bad. The footbridges and suspension bridges in the gorge offer similar "thrills".
