The Gasherbrum II is the third summit of Gasherbrum massif, after Broad Peak and Gasherbrum I 8,047 m 8,068 m. And the mass is located in the Karakoram mountain range, the Himalayas and is divided part and part of Chinese territory in Pakistani territory.

Reaching the summit of Gasherbrum II does not seem to be easy because now there are not many who can annovrare that company among its climbing.

waste ...

Quando ci si trova in montagna a fare trekking, a fare una gita o più semplicemente a fare un pic nic spesso ci troviamo di fronte a bottigliette vuote, carta, avanzi di cibo e ad altri rifiuti .
Inutile dire che la cosa migliore da fare è mettere tutto in un bel sacchetto e traspostare l’immondizia sino al primo bidone; purtroppo non siamo tutti uguali e ci sono persone maleducate che ignorano tutto questo e abbandonano i rifiuti durante il loro cammino, contribuento a sporcare e deturpare ambiente e natura.

Partendo dal presupposto che questo non è un problema solo della montagna ma anche nelle nostre città, strade e vie sono spesso “sporcate” the indifference of the people, the impact that waste has abandoned nature is devastating.

think that every year are left "tons" of waste mountains, parks, woods ... so in the midst of nature, and this figure does not include the mountains (million tons) of waste that are left base camps in the mountains over 5,000 meters, where it is impossible to reach these places by public means of transportation and the "traffic" of people consistently produces huge quantities of waste without the possibility of disposal.

waste released into the environment as well as "dirty" and damages the appearance of the landscape, have a major impact because the total time for the decomposition of waste are often months or years and sometimes even centuries. I leave tabellacon below a certain specified time decomposition :

- apple core: 5-6 months
- banana peel: 8-10 months
- orange peel: 2-4 years
- tissue paper: 2 -3 -
month - paper candy / chocolate: 4-5 years
- chewing gum: five years
- cigarette package: 10-20 years
- tin tomato paste: 50 years
- polystyrene: 50 years
- Aluminum cans: 20 -200 years
- Calling card 10 centuries
- sacchetto plastica: 500 anni
- bottiglia plastica: 5-10 secoli
- bottiglia vetro: 40 secoli

Vigo di Fassa, Antermoia, Campitello di Fassa-P.te 2 -


Ripreso il nostro cammino, eccoci sul passo Principe (2599 mt. slm.); qui l'omonimo rifugio , con le sue persiane bianco/rosse, risalta in mezzo al grigio che ormai ci circonda. Ci incamminiamo su un sentiero marcato ma abbastanza impegnativo per la sua pendenza, fino a scollinare in direzione della Val Duron.
La discesa ancora impegnativa ci porta in una grigia distesa di pietre, dove un tempo dominava il lago ora ormai ritiratosi alle spalle del Ref Antermoia (2497 meters above sea level..).

The almost lunar landscape, slowly interrrompe and pursuing our descent we enter the green Val Duron, magical and distinctive. Small huts and cattle characteristic accompany us to the refuge. Micheluzzi (1850 meters above sea level..) And then, after a short stretch of asphalt, we come up area of \u200b\u200bCampitello di Fassa (1448 meters above sea level..).
The trip was made by me back in 2003, though the path is well marked, for its length and covered the hilly course it is a rather demanding need for great weather and a good equipment trekking.
