Cosmos Designstar 2008

early spring weekend

I needed a distraction and needed to be with the rider: I was granted a few days off before Easter. so I relaxed a bit 'and then I came back for Sunday lunch: what was seen in the table, I say that I was right!
say with conviction that at my house we eat much better than in many restaurants!

Wednesday 19:
are playing for lunch, so as to arrive at st. vincent in the afternoon, make a good snack, rest a bit and take a ride to Aosta.
workout in the evening in canoa nella piscina di st. vincent : ho rivisto con piacere un po' di gente che non incontravo da tempo, e l'allenamento è stato proficuo.
ho perfezionato il mio eskimo con la pagaia, sotto l'attenta supervisione di Maestro Fiocco ( BRAVA , mi ha detto: estrema soddisfazione!) e dato sfoggio del mio eskimo senza pagaia (è un bel gioco)!
l'allenamento è stato produttivo e l'attività divertente; l'aspetto meno piacevole, ma più faticoso, della serata è stato portare la barca da casa in piscina: poche centinaia di metri, in salita e con la canoa in spalla, sembrano non finire più!

giovedì 20:
tempo buono: aria fredda, ma cielo sereno!
le condizioni sono ideali per affrontare una via di qualche tiro alle placche di oriana , a courtil, in valle di champorcher.
la strada comunale arriva fino al piccolo centro abitato (?), poi diventa privata e non transitabile, quindi bisogna proseguire a piedi. esiste un sentiero, ma per evitare di perderci abbiamo preferito seguire la carreggiata.
siamo arrivati poi in una conca con qualche baita: il paesaggio, la luce, i profumi e i cinguettii mi hanno dato un'emozione d'infanzia, un ricordo di sensazioni provate tra le montagne valdostane quando ero bambina. l'aria frizzante dell'inizio (quasi) della primavera, ha risvegliato in me alcune emozioni nello stesso modo in cui le ho provate da child. at that time, I enjoyed that spot for the good feelings he gave me, regardless of the expectations of entertainment at the foot of the climbing wall.


we attacked a street date of 5a/5b: the only way not marked on the guide (I was with my bare hands 2 , published recently updated and well, and we were able to choose the only way not pointed out!). unfortunately I have not marked the name, just remember rue de ... something : salt in the wall between elbow grease 6-and 7 - silence. I searched news on the web, without finding, someone help me know?
the way is beautiful and varied: the first pitches are in the plaque, rather grip, instead of salt in the last few dihedrals rather challenging. to descend, as an alternative to double, there is a path that traced back to the base of the wall. it is good to remember to bring a comfortable pair of shoes!


I tried to open the first pitch, but I had to leave halfway because fear stops me ...
I am redeemed on the third, the difficulty was about the same, but after a while 'heating on first pitches, I climbed more easily.
however, after a winter of near inactivity in the wall, I was satisfied with my performance! (BRAVA , mi ha detto: estrema soddisfazione!)

giornata conclusa con soddisfazione ad arnad a fare la merenda!

venerdì 21 :
primo giorno di primavera!!
al mattino non ha fatto che piovere; faceva anche molto freddo e non riuscivamo a far partire l'impianto di riscaldamento: così siamo rimasti in casa a leggere e studiare!
assaliti poi dalla noia, nel pomeriggio ci siamo spinti fino ad aosta, per alcune commissioni, sotto una nevicata bellissima, a fiocchettoni!
così è iniziata la primavera...

sabato 22:
già le previsioni meteo lo avevano annunciato: mareggiata a levanto !
I wanted to try it (sooner or later I have to learn to surf the waves of the sea), but when I saw the size of the waves and the number of canoeists and surfers in the water, I changed my mind. I then spent the afternoon between cake and beer, a chat with maura and a little 'game with smokey.
it was not cold, the sun, warm, warm the body more than the air ... But the feeling was nice. until sunset, we were right!

Acoustic Solutions Keeps Turning Off

uncertain

Saturday, March 15:

forecasts are not good, but in Milan it is spring: warm and sunny!
after a grueling pulls and loose with the rider that says: " we leave in the morning, not in the afternoon, we go to the river, no mountain, but if you want to boh. maybe. " Finally we decided to climb to Mottarone , climbing sector of 'ossola much loved by me.
prepare the backpack glad to finally be able to get some 'of sun load climbing summer clothing (vest and knee-length trousers) and I am upset because I can not find the cap alone ... is not serious will not beat so much. go!
from one means already be too late, do not distract the sole distributor and gas found on the highway, it means having to turn all stresa looking for a pump and a further loss half an hour.
but the place is beautiful, no sun, it's hot, we're on the lake there that looks nice view ...
finally we take the road that leads to Mottarone and find that the toll is increased (oh you know, the adjustment ... now go that way disaster costs 6 eu for cars and 3.50 for motorcycles.).
continue.
come up, the parking lot of the ski in the middle of colored people in padded jumpsuit and we realize something was wrong: there is plenty of snow around and we are inside a cloud. a cold breeze refreshes us ideas.
are not exactly ideal conditions for climbing, but we change ourselves and let's see: the path down the cliff is not see, is covered with snow, we know the road and continue ...
staple is looking street birthday and street guides , respectively 6c and 6a +. but it is crazy? moreover are three in the afternoon, we are in the fog and is bitterly cold. deter easily.
Needless to say we are alone, there is not a soul around. from the ridge in front of our stands up in a daring glider: he must have a screw out of place!
then decide to stop in the field of owl: Is there any shot possible and in any case we are not going to stop for long!
attack the first pitch and I realize I could not move: long inactivity, sinusitis and dizziness from arctic cold block me, and hands and feet have no feeling. mid-wall and decide to go down the rope bud. he goes up, comes down, the division I tried again a couple of steps back down, put the rope in your backpack and run like wild goats. the rider wants to go looking for the attachment of the long way: he goes, but I prefer to start towards the car to change.
along the climb, I choose a passage other than to get done, and I find myself walking in a snow Conchetta knee shoes and light summer pants are not appropriate. I stop to take away a bit 'of ice from the shoes and ankles before it becomes water, then I take a brisk.
dream a hot tea in the bar, but I closed and sealed, there is no one in the yard, I just feel that the cat hitting the slopes, but I do not see why the fog is dense. the thermometer of the machine marks the 6th: I thought worse!
I change in a hurry, I eat half of the biscuits and I finally reached bud, in time to eat the other half.
turn on the machine and it heats up and it runs better.
today did not go well ... we will do tomorrow?
