Itinéraire : Bloude Haute - cabane de Nicolas - col des Cloches - Grande Cloche ou Cloche de Barles - pâturages de Baran à la cote 1600 - Petite Cloche ou Sommet de Nibles - cabane de Nicolas - Bloude Haute
Sommet : 1900 m
Dénivelée : 1100 m (1200-1500-1450-1900-1600-1900-1450-1500-1200)
Difficulté : 3.2
Dernière journée de cette virée impromptue dans les Préalpes dignoises, vers les Cloches de Barles déjà skiées en 2008 par conditions hivernales. Cette fois les températures printanières ne laisseront pas de place à la poudreuse, mais après une petite demi-heure de portage (bien rester sur les sentiers pour ne pas se fourrer… dans les fourrés d’épineux, localement nombreux !) on chaussera versant nord vers 1500 m sur un enneigement vite abondant. On enchaînera ce jour Grande Cloche et Petite Cloche (la plus haute… mais pas la plus impressionnante) sur une neige finalement bien skiable en dépit du faible regel nocturne et de la forte douceur diurne, dans un cadre à la fois provençal parmi les genêts et pins, et alpin sur des arêtes sommitales aériennes. Encore une belle sortie pour clôturer ce séjour de proximité dans des montagnes dignoises enneigées comme rarement au-dessus de 1500 m.

l'approche ingrate sous 1500 m, entre épineux et ravins de marnes, sous la figure tutélaire de l'Estrop
