The exploration of the mountains

The Pro Loco Pieve Castionese is organizing three evenings in March and April about the mountains.

Three events in March and April to discuss the mountains, this year from the perspective of the explorer. This is the theme of the 2016 edition of the evenings on the mountains organized by Pro Loco Pieve Castionese.

It begins on Thursday March 31, 2016 at 8:45pm in Cirvoi, in the meeting room of the Cooperative, with “The breath of the mountains”, as told by Marco Sala Tuze. Sala Tuze is a mountaineer of “Gruppo Rocciatori Caprioli” of San Vito di Castore and the manager of Rifugio Passo Staulanza at Mount Pelmo, who lives in the mountains and for the mountains.

Through his gorgeous photos, participants will relive the emotions of his climbs in various continents around the world and the dramatic moments he lived through during the Nepal earthquake on April 25, 2015, as he tried to climb Lhotse (8,516m).

The second event is scheduled for Thursday April 7th at 8:45pm, in Castion, at the San Gaetano Theater.  Roberto Ciri will describe “The 3000 meters of the Dolomites at the discovery of common paths.”

Ciri is passionate about the mountains and the history of climbing, in particular the common paths and the historical charm that characterizes them. He is an Academic Member of GISM, who, for 11 years, has managed the website www.vienormali.it and worked with the publisher Idea Montagna to publish various excursion guides and curate the series dedicated to common paths.

The evening with be a sort of voyage to discovery the common paths to the top of the Dolomites, over 3000m high, on which he has written a guide published in 2012 with a second edition in 2014.

The third event will be on Thursday April 14, 2016 at 8:45pm in Castoi, in the meeting room at Circolo Val Cicogna, with “The voice of the mountains” of Francesco Santon, climber, Academic Member of GISM.

Today Salton organizes expeditions and hiking because he has learned how “to listen to the voice of the mountains: that which invites you to go beyond, up to the next adventure.” The author will present 46 years of mountaineering, adventures and exploration in every part of the world: describing a way to go to the mountains that has changed over the years, as have the times, the styles, and the ways of life.

All of the events are free of charge.
