...salta il camoscio,tuona la valanga...Il sole e' gia' sceso dietro il Gran Paradiso(m.4061),l'unico "4000" interamente italiano. Sui versi del Carducci chiudo la galleria"Le mie montagne" condividendo con voi il ricordo di quest'ultima avventura. Nel luglio del 1991,a circa meta' strada della salita su ghiacciaio che porta alla vetta lungo la via normale,un improvviso e furioso temporale si abbatte' sulla montagna,costringendoci a prendere la decisione di rinunciare. Il mio gruppo ed io iniziammo così una precipitosa ritirata verso il rifugio Vittorio EmanueleII (m.2732),da cui eravamo partiti poco dopo l'alba,e dove,tra mille preoccupazioni e ansie,mi aspettavano moglie e figlia di otto anni. Fra tuoni assordanti e lampi accecanti e pericolosissimi,ci trovammo ben presto immersi in un involucro di nuvole basse e nere che lasciavano una visibilita' intorno a noi di soli 50-60 metri. Il diluvio di pioggia gelida trasformava poco a poco il ghiacciaio sotto i nostri piedi in un acquitrino di neve marcia,in cui,a volte,si sprofondava fino al di sopra del ginocchio. Arrivammo al rifugio dopo ore di marcia estenuante,esausti e bagnati fino alle ossa,quando gia' l'ansia generale era palpabile. Chi non ha mai vissuto l'avvenimento di un temporale estivo in alta montagna,pensera' sicuramente a un'esagerazione. La durissima esperienza,la paura di non riuscire a "farcela",mi turbarono profondamente,segnando,di fatto,la fine delle mie avventure in alta montagna dopo sette anni di escursioni. Oggi,ogni volta che mi affaccio dal terrazzo di mia madre,resto per lunghi minuti ad osservare il panorama che propongo in questa fotografia; e' sempre lo stesso da millenni,eppure cambia alla piu' piccola variazione di luce,o per il passaggio di qualche nuvola. E allora,la nostalgia mi assale silenziosa e opprimente...ma anche torna vivo il ricordo di quella discesa paurosa...e allora penso che sia stato giusto così,decidere di chiudere definitivamente quel capitolo in quell'occasione. Sono tornato alle montagne soltanto nel 2010,diciannove anni dopo il Gran Paradiso,ed e' stato come rivedere un vecchio amore,vero,intenso,vissuto...ma finito. Gli anni passano,i ricordi restano,il camoscio salta ancora da una roccia all'altra e il tuono della valanga provoca sempre un brivido a chi lo sente.

I read the intense caption All of a breath, hit me. The nature and the mountain are like this: beautiful and charming but we will always be small creatures to their mercè.
Beautiful shot with beautiful and delicate colors, to observe it you perceive your respectful love for the mountain.
Hello Simone a very dear greeting.
Roberto
