Via ferrata Vallon, Piz Boè Monday 24 August 2015
So a couple of hours before the Hut evening meal, a small blue patch appears and for the first time since we arrived, we can see the mountains around us. Tall severe crumbly crags for the most part, leading to upper desolate plateaux. We take the gear and walk around the lonely cirque, full of stones that have fallen.
