"As an adolescent I aspired to lasting fame, I craved factual certainty, and I thirsted for a meaningful vision of human life - so I became a scientist. This is like becoming an archbishop so you can meet girls."

Rifugio Gonella is open!I have been wanting to go on this route for a few years now and was disappointed in 2009 to find it closed due to the re-building of the Gonella Hut. But I see now that it opened again in 2011 - maybe you should update your page! I hope to be in the Alps again in September - maybe I shall be paying a visit!
Best wishes, Mark
