sad that people lost their lives but it could have been far worse


Yo...didn't think anyone remembered, it's been a few years :)

That's Bondo, the base-town in the main valley for Soglio, the ancient settlement along the historic Roman passroad through the chestnut plantations.

Actually, they had another, smaller slip a couple of days later. It followed the path of the first one and took out a few more buildings.

Dave Cooper (Latte-Dave) and his new love-in-life were walking the place only a few weeks ago. Parked the bikes in Castasegna right on the border and walked up to Soglio, then took the bus to Bondo and back to the bikes.

T2...whoohoo! The memories put an instant smile on the dial.:woot:

<-- now went that way
A tack north and up the Passo di Spluga…and coming from the south, the climb is exhilarating; the road hewn out of the cliff is a cracker!
