many times the news is filtered by degree of importance, I think it is obvious that a wounded man on the presanella makes more noise than a wounded man on the mountain, and yet both can be experienced mountaineers as beginner hikers. And rescue operations in the same way, are always implied, as if a recovery action were so simple. This photograph I would like to dedicate it in some way to those who risked their lives to save someone else in the mountains, to those who lost it in an accident. Now what surely someone will think is "and the meaning?", The meaning is to know, because unfortunately we can not do anything after a tragedy. along this path a week ago a person lost his life and a rescuer was injured in the search operation. I wanted to retrace this excursion by myself, to realize myself. The only thing I can do in my little one is to dedicate this photo, and try to make people think. I stopped a hundred meters below the summit due to the high avalanche danger and due to exposure to ice. I met a mountaineer under the summit, and we retired, considering the passage too dangerous, making the descent together. I hope this thought can be transmitted and I apologize for having written in a bad Italian, but I find it hard to explain what I think about it.
