Scrolling Down W/o Blackberry Trackball

few, but good!

snow this year ... so run a bit 'strange ... and weather conditions that can not be stable ... well ... now the weather is too bad that there is for high pressure will suffer from drought in summer! So
few trips. ... But good!;)
After a period of wonderful powder immediately after Christmas, the snow here already become (sic) and last January. ... And now back to ravanare! What then is often a good ravanare! A trip
already done, we explored three years ago almost all of Valgrisenche ski mountaineering, beautiful valley with Lord trips! Tours mica to laugh .... Few MS, many channels, the slopes at 40 degrees, the trips always above the 1200-1300 m altitude there ... Saturday we brought a friend who had never climbed the Mont Forciaz.
We start early, there will be increase in temperature, and wind, and the trip was soooooo development! At 9 am we are at the dam Bonne, a nice group of "creepers" part of a great career and should be ... I find myself in the channel of the hill while ascending and descending their first ... a boring stretch of road, then plugging in the woods at last!

becomes Lunghetti Here ... we do all the dam, between the various ups and downs .... Then plugged into a ravine that leads to the refuge under Chalet de l'Epée


We stopped just before a break for food + drink and enjoy the sun! In the forest we saw earlier, and from the chalet to climb the hill ... a North cashed! No tan: P
I tell members to go ahead and take their hand: the trip is long, I have no training, are not even safe to go on ...



We are moving back the shelter and behold, once the lower slopes leading to the canal, past the ridge, here the track goes right instead of in the middle of the channel where I usually download



Slowly, all alone, I get ... I stop, I try to warm the batteries' is damn camera in the batteries ... I guess I do not go so well in the cold! (Hence the photo with name, are in arrears, I am able to make too many!) Left alone with my thoughts, my illness, my fears .... Meanwhile, I get ...




I have all the channels to do ... .. I stop to eat, I feel a tremendous hunger! Meanwhile, there's the "onesie" with which we exchange a few words ... then divided, undecided if you go at all, if you stop and wait while my partners ... the thoughts are spinning, the shadow of my fears accompany my climb ...





Avanzo, the track is excellent, and for now, just a little 'tired, but the head turns right!
Standing so long, more than a year, with a sword of Damocles over the head with the uncertainty of why you're so bad, and being afraid of his own shadow, not a good medicine!
So many thoughts, so many fears, so many things I "talk" while we're always alone in surplus ... step up close to residues of the glacier that once was here ... now I have only a few blocks, and puts forth two "cauliflower" green ... just before the track goes up ... and almost without seeing him, I'm on! The hill





... but the point is still far away ....




fatigue so much ....




But this time, I beat my fears ... the shadows that darkened and made me see all black, who wanted to sink deeper and deeper .. Members I recover and go! Descend! It's late. ... I was slow, very slow ... not that the trip is short, and also to get aware of it! The development is outstanding!
The channel is unfortunately not as beautiful snow: there are 15-20 cm of dust on an irregular bottom of the hill ... up close, whether by wind crust bearing and non load-bearing sections, still skiing, but technical, snow is not easy! Then move on to the flour bottom irregular, which requires a bit 'more than technique and strength, of the ski leap and strength "as he says, to at least pretend that ringed a few corners ... but come under the long traverse above the chalet and the small slope, to bring in Walloon Cussuna with, and then down in the woods where we hoped to find Polverello .... Instead it is a bit of new snow a 'technique, this layer of crust carrying not hard, but annoying and that they should be able to interpret! The last slope before the road is hard by the many steps, how to get down the track! the way the sbisciamo quickly ....
Beer with members doing in practice the "snack sinoira 'given time .... But the satisfaction of having at least begun to defeat the monsters of my fears, it is so!
Valgrisenche ... and has many beautiful trips that await!!
