Galactic circus

When I see this kind of landscape located on the Franco-Italian border, I tell myself that we live in a beautiful country.

We are lucky to have this kind of raw, wild landscape where you can feel dominated by nature.
When I face such elements, alone, I feel privileged and aligned with myself.
This symbiosis with the alpine poppies, the sea of ​​clouds, the celestial vault, the airglow, the light pollution in the background make me…
Actually no. There are no words to describe such a moment. This is the kind of moment that is made to be fully experienced.

Located in the Po plain, the presence of a sea of ​​clouds (called Nebbia) is frequent.
That night, the weather forecast announced the presence of the Nebbia.
The only way to check it is to go to the Franco-Italian border.
No less than 7km of hiking with 800m of elevation gain and 18KG of equipment.
And I was not disappointed.
