Saturday, Sept. 19

I had spoken with the people who had recommended this mountain hut to me (and who had slept there as a group of four) at the top of the mountain in the opening shot of the video (to the left of the highest point—the “triangle”—in the distance).

And as if that weren't enough, the spacious sleeping area! (Apologies for the lighting.)

(If I could choose now, I’d pick my little tent! )
