| Piani Resinelli, Rifugio Porta then Rifugio Albarosa ~ 5 hour loop A very lovely and sort of freaky hike involving ladders and chains to hang onto with Joe's colleagues - Michael - 100% attendance with our weekend outings and Jake and Virginia |
| [pic left] You can see me on the ladder, the sign to my right - is to pay respect to a 26 year old who fell right there and died. Nice. To provide some perspective of how big the drop off is because these pictures don't do it justice... if I looked over my right shoulder I would see Joe below (as you see below) going across that tiny ledge, not even a ledge, just metal things stuck into the rock, to put your feet and that plastic covered chain - for easy hand slipping. Funny how confident you feel with a harness and climbing shoes. |
| The terrain was really interesting and unique and you could only really see it at it's best if you hiked in, over these treacherous paths. We also climbed up into a cloud which made it cold and visibility crap. |
