Boxer doesn’t have a ghost writer

Needless to say…It has been a few post’s since Boxer’s photo appeared in a footprint. He does exist. With the arrival of Peter and Steph one can take to the bank that there will be more pictures.
Today the weather forecast dictates our schedule. We took advantage of the unlimited bus pass for travel between the small towns along the Dolomites in the Alpi de Suisi/Seiser Alm region. We decided to east to St Ulrich (Ortisei) and to Selva. On the route we passed through the alpine skiing community of Val Gardena.
As the weather looked to be improving we decided to take the gondola from Ortisei up to Piz a different high alpine meadow northeast of the one I hiked on Saturday. The plan was to trek north to the gondola at Alpi di Suisi, the same lift that we used yesterday. Today I was either going to take the gondola down or catch the bus…not interested in the 2+ hour descent. As the weather deteriorated the bus became the best option, even at 16 €.

The balance of the day was split between researching different routes, updating the blog and sharing a meal (prepared by Peter and Steph) at our hotel.Leia mais
