Overview

KING of KINGS, or HIS MAJESTY the TIME I could write in this "Ouverture" thousands of things: beautiful, wonderful, ugly, sad and comical. But I will not, because the two photos of Antonio and Emilio, with the two below Landscapes by ourselves, say it all by themselves on this beautiful mountain behind the City of Aosta. Incidentally you will find all kinds of paths and turns around the main focus of this group of mountains, culminating at 3.559 meters, and also a detailed list of climbs on what is believed to be his route more attractive, secure, or the Northeast Ridge or Three Curates Crest, located amidst the vertiginous Walls East, the Black Triangle and North and dominant about three thousand metres the Central Valley of the River Dora Baltea.

Good rides to Everyone and remember to be careful and have fun.
 
Before the night falls, leaving you alone ...

Il RE dei RE, ovvero SUA MESTA' il TEMPO Avrei potuto scrivere in codesta "Ouverture" di migliaia di cose: belle, meravigliose, brutte e tristi o comiche. Ma non lo farò, poiché le due foto di Antonio ed Emilio, nonché le due sottostanti Panoramiche dei medesimi, parlano già da sole su questa Montagna alle spalle della Città di Aosta. Daltronde troverete percorsi e giri di ogni tipo intorno alla principale di questo gruppo di montagne, culminanti a 3.559 metri; ed anche un dettagliato elenco di salite su quello che si reputa essere il suo itinerario più elegante e sicuro, ovvero la Cresta Nordest o dei Tre Curati, posta tra le vertiginose Pareti Est, del Triangolo Nero e Nord e dominante da all'incirca tremila metri la Valle Centrale del Fiume Dora Baltea.

Buone gite a Tutti e ricordatevi di essere prudenti e divertitevi. Prima che scenda la Notte, lasciandovi soli ...

Più tardi la luna ha inondato la scena della sua luce tranquilla, e noi siamo tornati all'aperto..."... Edit. RM C.A.I. in Turin, 1907).
