That pic is amazing.

Sardegna really a beautiful place (and an excellent destination for cycling)!

Thanks! I will add wearing a helmet during summer is hot!

The story is short: I went to the Cottian Alps, climbed a via ferrata there!

I appreciated the opportunity, but I prefer hiking (less challenging, you can appreciate the surroundings more)

Hehe to both you and @poVoq@slrpnk.net, I am not the biggest fan of contemporary architecture (despite being a fan of contemporary visual and plastic arts), but I can assure you that the structure felt quite at home among the mountains. It is made of stone (similar shade as the rocks) and the shape too (a mix of “research station” vibes and “fortress” vibes) kind of blends in.

This year was particularly cold, which was good for the health of the glacier. But alas yes, there are marks where ice started in past decades/centuries, and it is falling back inexorably…

Comment: I travel light, but this time I overpacked (almost filled my 30l for a one-nighter). I need to consider options next time!
