What Is The Rikers Island Visiting Schedule?

Snowshoeing - Refuge Tour in Maddalene

Yesterday we finally found a sunny day. Snowshoeing fantastic, although the location was not very long and the snow, especially in the afternoon, it was running.


March 19 - Refuge Tour (Mary Magdalene)



Group Stavola not particularly large, we were at 9, ready for anything. We let the machines Matzlaun (alt. 1466 m), a group of farms north of Proves, but in Val di Non in Alto Adige!

Alla partenza
Above the car park at the start


Almost the entire route was developed between the pastures covered with snow, even if it is not within a few laps of sparse pine forests. All of silence, light and snow.

Some ascents in the woods


Mountains, in particular Mount Corniculum (q. 2308 m) surrounding the landscape. Snow is definitely a lot (over 1 m) and, on the northern slopes, it will remain for a long time.

After a first stop in the Hills of Revò (alt. 1734 m) we continued the climb to get to the edge of the woods and cut at a height, reach Malghetto to q. 1894 m, where we had lunch and spent most of the afternoon sun.

During the descent, reached the hut of oilseed rape (1,732 m Q), we made a stop to test the transceiver, shovel and probe. So we repulsed headlong downhill, in the middle of a wet, heavy snow, which sank at every step.
