A bum with blunt axes


Now summer is at an end, and you are rich with experience of the mountains.
For the winter you will be left with good and bad memories of the routes you have done. You will remember above all the ridges and faces you glimpsed, studied and longed for as you climbed. These on gloomy days will be the subjects of your dreams.

You are rich in memories, but also rich in ambitions. So many routes to do, and beyond the alps so many peaks.
