La Dôle is a peak in the Jura mountain range which borders France and Swizerland. It has an altitude of 1677.2 meters. The northwest face provides skiing in the winter.

Sometimes little fingers know just what to do to put a smile on everyone's and anything's face!
And sometimes grown-ups also beautify our surroundings.
