The course ended with that, in my humble opinion, and that of several other students, was the most beautiful cave (for me count the first one with the sandstones, because of the narrow cave ... but the other remains at the top .. .)
First strand strong performances from this cave ... let the machines in that of St. Anne of Bernezzo, 3 - 4 km
A short speech deserves the history of this cave, and a hat should be done to brave cavers Pinerolo for their work: thanks to the work by bookworm Fricu good it turned out that back in the '50s divining an abbot at the request of the thirsty inhabitants of the village of S. Anna, had identified the presence of water near a small valley just above the village ... FANTASTIC, mo 'if' bbeve!! Too bad that the excavations, after the removal of 9 meters
After several years, thanks to his discovery of Fricu (But you read the Gazzetta dello Sport, never, eh? ^ _ ^) A group of fearless engages in the hole again ... if there is water, there is not want it dug some nice cunicoletto ? And indeed it is a pity that
After this brief digression back to us: entry already excites us, and we throw ourselves headlong into the well (we hope no one close, and throw away the key !!!!), between gay groups of locusts and nice family of spiders and millipedes (... brrr, I shudder ....^_^). At the end of the well, unfortunately, run out of convenience: the ladder rungs gave way to a strettoietta (down 'na shit ... to return ... I will suffer not just figure that you !!!!!) then sinks to the first well ... seee a no brainer ... At the bottom after three or four changes, says Seraphic Sciupy <
No way, you will return back on the same side ... but at least we can take heart with a pretty good vision, a wonderful cast carbonate on the wall in front of us (do not ask the height because I still have a little 'problems to orient in the cave, but it's really impressive), with concretions that you spread up the gravel on the ground, stalactites and stalagmites that climb up the imposing challenge to the incessant drip of calcareous water when it rains there ... it seems that "pools "Not bad, in fact in many areas we see the impetus of the water signs (A beautiful area with very smooth and curved forked concretions, which in case of rain create a nuisance for the poor caver jet involved in discea or slope ...).
Instead of taking the descending branch (probably flooded) we engage with the ascent of this beautiful wall concreted, touching with as much respect as those of the ancient signs of erosion and deposit of our now loyal friend, the water (and its cousin the limestone, of course ...^_^).
At the end of this short piece in a narrow slope in clay powder (such as Armando would point out ... NOW ... is dust a few years ago it was a dirty heap of mud that clung to you that even the panties ... nostalgia, eh?) separates us from a new outlet, this time not in a vacuum, but more wedged into the rock ... all the strings are very well armed, and then the changes are quite easy, but it's very nice, especially since the opening downhill at every bend, every ledge, an amazing view, where a multicolored plates embedded in the rock concretions and yellowed from the deposits of iron in the water washed away the clay and alternate strips of angel hair and a so intense and bright white color to make you risk losing hand several times to the descender, such is the wonder ... yes, okay, maybe I exaggerated a little bit ... ^ _ ^
However, it is truly a magnificent setting, and at one point we pass to a slot that seems to call me ... definitely has a narrow (25cm!!) ... Sooner or later will pass from there ... and that means that the cave will make perfect! ! We will see, the time will come ...
After the descent we find ourselves in a walkway littered with trays full of water, which leads to a new well ... you can not continue because it is flooded, but the vision of this environment is more than enough : such a wealth of facilities and limestone caves that serve as niches for sculptures truly majestic, white, yellow, pink, reddish, bright, opaque ...
But no more talk, it's time to go: the slope, as expected, more challenging ... but little by little we go, first set of changes in slope against the wall (and groped at the beginning of the cylinder poor Tatino ... damn canteen the cap does not ... sorry!), a pair of saints brought down in words because my musette Erik has seen fit to take away the rope after I moved (... SORRY!), again the short narrow passage, the ... and down along the concretion WELL !!!!!!! After the first exchange, rather short, I try to pull the rope in the collapse ... poker, thank goodness ... that is static because of the length rope has a certain elastic component, and the slope you see me struggling with a human yo-yo probably hilarious to see ... but a lot less to do, alas! The climb is really tough, but somehow you manage to get to the last change ... WOW, it's over!! But no ... even if the very simple narrow-leg was a no brainer, I decided to complete the course in style with a fool indeed to film ... I could earn my third field name (as well as Manu and Coso) ... ARTERIES! !
isso me to the change "smoothly" in the hole, I turn around easily and ... oops ... fuck ... shit ... they are stuck ... I try desperately to put out a shoulder and amputate a couple of ribs to draw me out of trouble ... "You want me to come down?" - Armando sfotte from above .... "Nope, I figured, I put the musette, I turn and arrive in a blink 'eye - I say confident - that's ... um .... that is, well .... maaaaa feel, is that you can not come down ... ?!"^_^ the scene must have been a pitiful little man ...
However, expect the arrival of all those leaving between ... crap shoot with Cuneo Ico Patel and he showers of rain come the 20 and look like chicks ... go numb, you go home ... and the course is over .... sigh sigh ... Or rather, the course ends and begins divertimen: if the poor instructor will not be afraid of us (after the description of my performance might not will live anytime soon, at least with me ... sigh ...) you will hear soon about the exploits of the brave Nancy, Silvia, Vibro, Rosy, Fashion, Andrea, the Brothers "F", Tatino, Tarzan and Manu /
Another Thing ... thanks to those who brought us safely along this adventure ... if you are able to teach us can go anywhere ... CONGRATULATIONS!! In order strictly and scattered ... Husky Sciupet-ta (the mighty instructors), Maurilio grandfather, Peio, Laura (it's useless ... if you're not here I go near ... what can I do better ?!?!^_^), Marco, Norma, Bubu (er president!), Birch ('o shit! ^ _ ^), Acea and external Hector, Rube, Manu (the real one!), Ico, Patel and Vera ...
soon (spero. ..) for new, exciting adventures!
Slan!
