Ragged peaks and green valleys in a scarred landscape

by Evelien van Dijk

The Italian dolomites exists of raw, ragged peaks with huge debris cones or alluvial fans, alternated by lush green hills and valleys. Rockfalls and avalanches left a contrasting imprint on the green valley slopes of this scarred landscape. More than once we had to walk over rock debris that covered the trail.
