View from Le Grand Bord across Cirque de Mafate in N direction. La Nouvelle is shown in the left, Marla in the right centre. Gros Morne (3019 m) and Piton des Neiges (3070 m) appear in the right background. The clouds moving in from the background reflect the uplift of air driven against the NE slopes of the island by the tradewinds.
