Rifugio Mantova. Here we took off all our equipment and took a short break after some eight and a half hours. From there it was another 45-minute walk to the cable car station Indren. Then we were back in Gressoney where we had a pannino and a drink before driving back towards Torino. Alberto left me at the tube station, from there it was a less than then minute ride to Casa Crema where I spent the night and used the washing machine. The next day Maurizio was going to pick me up to drive back to Valle Aosta for our two-week trek.
