I have to please ... please ... I have to
I have to please ... please ... I have to
...
With this chant in his head trying to think about where go. I should not make too much difference ... and not too many miles (the reason is obvious: the knee is a tantrum: (Yesterday I was skiing and "he" was not too happy) ... but we know now how I did it!
This week came out of the drawer was the "usual" Val Coder, and when an idea in my mind not I can leave them.
For some, this walk is diminished stuff to pensioners, but there are about 1200 m in altitude over 20 km of development. Pesto not too much snow, dry and quiet walk.
's not really what today is my knee but being alone and being able to take my time I decided that the shelter is Brasca now that I review.
Let a bracket on the Val coder.
" on Lake Como for the truth of the Magna Ciavèna Valley, where the Mera Flumine puts it in the lake, here he finds et sterile mountains high with large rocks ... Hence fir, larch et pines, deer, stambuche, chamois, and terrible bears, you can not mount except at four feet. "Who speaks so
Val Codera is Leonardo da Vinci in his Atlantic code.

And indeed the beginning of the valley is very harsh. Before you open you must go from 300 m to 800 of Novate Mezzola Codera and continue.
The valley has always been inhabited, and still believe that it is not the only valley reached by a road permanently inhabited all year round.
Road. E 'for years that it is spoken. With also very funny stories (the death threats to people who have opposed with all their strength). A
Codera there are a couple of inns, two museums. More in the valley, near the bottom, two shelters and Bresciadega Brasca. The higher two camps: Casorate Sempione and Valleys.
L ' Codera Friends of the Valley has always tried to defend the valley and to organize initiatives to attend and make it known.
The first inn you'll find on Codera was run by a couple with 2 (or maybe 3, I forget) children. Wonderful people who prepared chestnut jams, cakes, cooked very well, gave hospitality also to Congress pathologists; In short we gave a lot of trouble and in fact we were full all summer. Then he died, at age 40, and his wife could no longer continue operations. Since then, the inn is closed.
They fought against the road.
The beauty of this valley is just that there is no road. Comes on a cable car. Stop.
Years ago there were bitter struggles to build a road to arrive there. We are mobilizing to stop this massacre many.
In part it seems we have succeeded. But now, just past Codera the way there. A carriage obscene, full of gray stones and a lovely trail that has replaced si inoltrava dolcemente nella valle.
Con la morte nel cuore ho percorso questo tratto di valle. Non credo ci tornerò più per il solo piacere di viaggiare in queste zone; se ci tornerò sarà solo perché ci devo passare tornando dal Ligoncio o dalla Omnio o dalla traversata Casorate-Valli.
Invece di spendere soldi per questa strada, perchè non hanno messo in sicurezza il Tracciolino? E' un itinerario fantastico che passa le dighe tra la Val dei Ratti e la Val Codera. Molto famoso, è interrotto da anni, proprio all'altezza di Codera, a causa di una frana. Se sistemassero quel tratto, si potrebbe percorrere ancora fino alla diga, sul lato opposto della valley where they now have built the monster.
But we are in Italy, do not we get there. We do not know their value to our shareholders.
The walk itself was quiet, with a little 'snow towards the end, just to wet the boots. The arrival at
Bresciadega excited me, it is always wonderful. From here on, for me it was always magical. The Brasca comes out as soon as you exit the forest, down in the plain at the foot of the Ligonchio and kissed by the sun.
is really long to get here, the signs give 4 hours, there I've used three and a half with my spared. The difference still substantial when you consider that with the end counterslopes are 1,200 m

I do not come down here very often, it is easier to Codera turns down the Roman bridge and go to St. George or to cover that increase from the Verceia Tracciolino . Routes that today I would advise in spite of the valley. Too bad ... really a great pity.

Do not think, little man, to be who knows who, because before you were born I was already there and when you no longer exist I'll be there again (The Mountain)
