The view back towards rifugio Grand Tournalin. It isn't easy, but you can spot the hut near the dirt road. I didn't like the hut itself, but the staff is friendly and the food was good. We had carrot cake with fonduta for a starter, then a very tasty vegetable soup, then spaghetti with tomato sauce and panna cotta with Genepi. Genepi is a sweet kind of "Schnaps" made of a plant the name of which I have unfortunately forgotton. We played scopa until ten and went to bed. I slept without blankets because it was really warm, incredible considering that we were at 2600m. We had climbed 1100m to the hut, which was also our highest point, we went down 600m.
