Lepini snowing for three days, but certainly nobody expected to find so much snow on Mount lowest in the chain.

E 'a mountain of moderate height 1095 meters, but these days the snow fell up to moderate heights.


already snowing in the village of Patrica , the starting point of the path, and an elder of the village condemn us for this friendly " is not a day to go in the mountains " You start the path and soon every element of the ground covered with a white blanket disappears more and more high!
Shrubs dried form strange images, surrounded and covered with snow as they are.
trees almost disappear in the white landscape, only evergreen oaks, maintain something of their form, because the bright green leathery leaves can be glimpsed in the snow.
Silence fell and a very nice experience!
The forest with the snow is a much more fascinating landscape of the white expanse of snow-covered ski slopes, to which most people are accustomed.
trees like white ghosts take us right up to the summit, swept by a wind chill that makes us go down quickly ... In a clearing

The views of the landscape that we find, as we walk silently sinking into the snow, are truly amazing, especially in these parts, and so Thank you, in my heart, for this unexpected gift of nature!
