September 11 - Corvara
Today was a travel day. We got up early to catch a bus for the 20 minute ride from Kastelruth to Ortisei (St. Ulrich). There we got another bus which went over a couple of spectacular passes enroute to Corvara where the bus stop is across the street from our hotel. After checking in and having some lunch we wandered about the town and took a short walk to a waterfall.

Mountains to the NE of town, known as the Santa Croce massif.  |
The highest peak is Zehnerspitze, 3026m. The plateau to the left and just
below the rocky stuff is where tomorrow's hike will be. |
