The Drei Zinnen from above

At the end of the climb of Mount Paterno (see the last two day’s shots) the view on the Drei Zinnen is simply stunning. It was a very rewarding climb, repeated after ten years of making it for the first time with my daughter (she was 12 y.o. then and she was the one to ask for it). I am a lucky guy.

Not only a great photographer, a great athlete too! It looks magical.

Fantastic b&w photo and great ending to your climb...I recall my dad telling me of the beauty of the Apennine Mountains and Alps Mountains in Italy which he traversed as a skier in the 10th Mountain Division during WWII.

Such textures and I love this!

The best of all is that your daughter asked to go again with you. Such a magical scene.

[Krista Marson]

Sounds like it was a fantastic hike!

[Virginia Stapleton]

I agree, the scene is magical.

@ludwigsdiana Oh my, too kind of you! I love the mountains, that’s all.
@seattlite I would love to listen to his stories. The environment must have been much more wild and authentic then. And the experiences he must have made!
@bkbinthecity Thank you very much!
@joysabin Thanks a lot!
@louannwarren Totally agreed! That was the magic. Thank you.
@blueberry1222 It was, absolutely fabulous.
@ginnys Thank you so much!

What a view! That's is so cool that your daughter went too - at just 12 years old

[Domenico Dodaro]

@catcarter19 Indeed! It was the most amazing trek, then, with my daughter and 5 schoolmates of hers (plus my wife and a couple of other parents, too).
