garlic mountain

may you add in the page that one secondary summit of Cesen is Monte VISENTIN, which is a quite important mountain, at least spiritually for me ;)
(p.s: there are a couple of pictures of Mount Visentin to attach too)

Re: garlic mountain

Aha! Yes, indeed, I see on the map Col Visentin! But it's enough far away to be an independent mountain. You should ascend it in post on SP ;)

Also for Monte Cesen I'm not sure if it can be translated into garlic mountain. Cesen is garlic in Slovenian, but this mountain is deep in the Italian territory.

Cheers!

Re: garlic mountain

Not sure when I'll be able to climb it ! But we were in Vittorio Veneto in 2007 so I've seen it at least ! Sure, it's fairly distant from Slovenia to be a garlic peaklet.
As for Visentin, the real origin is less "sexy" than a peak name, it means the inhabitants of Vicenza. Peak Visentin is named after pass Col Visentin, itself named after the Via Visentin leading to it, street named after.. someone called Visentin, which takes us back to Vicenza and the flat lands in all cases :)
