Association of the Mynes and southern Upper Vosges communes

The Association of the Mynes and southern Upper Vosges communes (French: Communauté de communes des Mynes et Hautes-Vosges du sud) is a former administrative association of communes in the Vosges département of eastern France and in the region of Lorraine. It was merged into the new Communauté de communes des Ballons des Hautes-Vosges in January 2013.

Created in 2006, the association had its administrative offices at Le Thillot.

The association was originally created under the name Association of Rupt Valley and Le Tillot communes ( (French: Communauté de communes du Val de Rupt et Thillot). It was rechristened with its present name three months later, in March 2007, in order to avoid privileging those member communes whose names had originally featured expressly within the association's name.
