Wow, this reminds me so much of the Dolomites (Italian Alps)... I used to live in Czech Republic and four of us did an overnight hike very similar to this. It was just awesome. I only had a point & shoot at the time, which might've been a good thing since I didn't need more weight to carry!

We brought our sleeping bags and stayed over night at a refuge just below the summit. They had a small pub inside the refuge and the polenta with wild mushrooms I had there definitely ranks among the top ten meals I've ever had. So simple and good after a long day of hiking!

In case you're interested, those shots are in my pre-dSLR gallery pages here

Lovely shots, Ana. Looks like a fabulous day trip. Can't wait to see more of your adventures!

Unbelievably gorgeous shots, Ana. I love how you documented your trip so well and colorfully. Beautiful!

Gorgeous! Thank you for sharing your adventure!

Thanks again, everybody, and sorry for the late reply, I was away at the seaside!

That was great. I think I would have fainted halfway up and would have to be rescued by someone.
The pictures as individual were breath taking and as a series awsome.
By the way, did u use a p/s or dslr? Hanging round ur neck would have drained the batteries due to low temparuteres and fogged the lenses? How did you manage to overcome these difficulties? Did you face any other problems and how did you manage it? would you like to share with us?
