Epic adventure up Pizzo di Vogorno (2442m) with Tim, Tommy and Anni.
First hour was a bit boring as I went back to the car to change shoes as my foot was sore in inov8s so had to catch the others up.
Such an awesome track with abandoned stone cottages appearing all over the place. Got a bit sketchy when we reached the ridge at the top as there was quite a bit of snow about. I was slipping all over the place in my normal running shoes and we had to do a fair bit of rock climbing to reach the top.
Then had so much fun running down a big stretch of snow. There were streams and rocks underneath so every now and then we'd sink up to our knees and fall flat on our faces. Path continued down through some gorgeous beech forest and past even more stone cottages before ending with some lovely waterfalls and gorge.
Followed this with a lovely dinner at the Aussies place in their amazing old stone village. Sitting outside in the sunshine till 9.30pm at a stone picnic table with vines overhead. Gorgeous :)
