abandoned mines in Versilia

After the exploration of tasty 2009, this year a small group of miners in the GSS went into the bowels of Versilia to penetrate within two abandoned pyrite mines.
This time the photos make it a good idea of \u200b\u200bthe scenarios that we faced, worthy of an adventure film Indiana Jones.

all begins by consulting an old mining plan of Mount Arsiccio:

first meet a series of abandoned structures: carpentry, changing rooms and especially the loading hopper to the cable car

The reading of the map is not quite instant, but because there are few references to the topography outside, but after a while of walking we reach the first entrance, which are immediately visible bright colors dellerocce metalliferous.

Inside the air is pungent and spreads just a characteristic odor of acid water. A first branch ends to explore some landslides caused by the failure of the ribs, the wooden sleepers.

while taking a kind of ramp down (on the bottom are visible signs of tires instead of tracks railroad decauville)

reach a sublevel flooded with water so dark and motionless as to seem almost a puddle of oil.

a little disappointed because the ford is not really feasible to go up the exit and after a few minutes of research on the side there is a second gallery. This tunnel, which is characterized by a greater trickle, leading to larger environments where in 1988 they have been abandoned some machines:

We continue to roam venturing into steps which looks more or less stable ...

environments but unfortunately they do not grow well, probably because of operations carried out after the exhaustion of filled lines.

There is still time though for a souvenir photo of the group

not lose heart for sure, because the second day of our weekend back from parts of mining Pontestazzemese all for fun ' Internal former mine 2009. A few last photos with LED lights is a must: the main level,

in the lower, partially flooded

and finally in the upper level, directly with the outlet side

Once again the charm of the abandoned mines has definitely hit us and go home satisfied and happy.

One last treat: here, exclusively, the new trailer for the highly anticipated film "Indiana Jones 5: Escape from abandoned mine "

RECOMMENDATION : For anyone who wants adventure in abandoned mines, REMEMBER THAT THE ROOMS ARE UNSTABLE AND ALL collapsing structures, SO ' SHOULD PAY CLOSE ATTENTION

Waterfalls of Volpara and Prata

This route is not particularly difficult but it is still one of the most pleasant of the National Park of Gran Sasso - Laga Mounts.
You can park your car at UMIT, Acquasanta village of Spa, a new parking lot that meets the left of the main road, hence a sign indicates a dirt road that passes near a hillside farm "Laga North" means a visa that the sky threatened rain, we are continuing with the car along this road, but in fact you earn up to a quarter of an hour's walk because it reached a small clearing, at the height of a concrete bridge on the right, must necessarily leave the car. But we must not abandon the road because the main trail continues straight and always obvious.
Immediately one is struck by the greenery that surrounds the visitors almost blinding

The small dirt track continues to remain quite large for several minutes and only after reaching a small abandoned hut, you walk along the long a path.

Although we are surrounded by lush vegetation (the effect of so much green is almost think of a forest in the Amazon) the river is always nearby and over the roar of the water vortex is often passes to the watercourse, which in fact goes through at some point without difficulty.

along the trail meets an old oven, once used by shepherds and brigands

then you run into a small cave to cave (Cave Spelonga)

and finally begin to see the first jumps of water (but it is a secondary stream)

There's not much to Volpara Waterfall, which is presented as a series of high jumps after

Siamoarrivati \u200b\u200bhere in about 3 hours, inclusive of lunch.
But there's more: a path climbs steep and slippery today on the left and can reach jumping higher. Right at the base of the highest ...

... there is a large deposit of frozen snow, almost June!

After admiring the view and the power of nature go back to the same path: Before you get to the car, however, we take the detour on the right leads to Waterfall Prata.

Overall, the trek takes 5-6 hours with a quiet pace. The beauty of the route, however, is the abundance of vegetation (= shadow), which combined to make the path streams nice and tasty even in the warmer months.

Valdorbia

pressed it immediately: these environments are not comparable to those of the extraordinary abandoned mine, but with the right perspective and good lighting in these old quarries can appreciate some views.
We're talking about the underground caves of Valdorbia: the number of open access in close proximity of the establishment Motette.

marly material that was extract was used for concrete production: the trend is still easily identifiable in a few meters thick layer having a pattern pitch.

All the caves are so like long straight corridors with pitched roofs. Sometimes a descendery, by way of multi-junction, allows to link two adjacent levels.

In these environments is critical to remember that the gaps are not created by nature over thousands of years, but they're dug by man in a relatively short period, therefore, are unstable and unsafe. Along all galleries Valdorbia of fact, there is evidence of collapse more or less recent and props made of wood in the past to reinforce the structures now have a look at all reassuring.

final note: The area is famous for its Valdorbia outcrops and it is very easy to find the ammonniti.

EXTREME CAUTION DURING THE VISIT AND ESPECIALLY DO NOT PUT THE OLD LEGS!

The Cave of the Cave of the Lakes 5 - Hot!

The output of today marks the great return of Cave Barbara, after the birth of little Anita: the new mother is in great shape, so that after 100 m of approach (four minutes of the car) starts to say: "but what is missing?", "'is never-ending climb."
The goal now is to do some nice pictures with a lot of water in the active branch (see the incredible amount of rain and snow fall this year) and before reaching the first lake we warmed up with some standard image:

The photo shoot is under constant surveillance by an attentive audience ...

Going into the cave, however, we soon realize that the runoff is adequate but not exceptional. However, many have formed "gargoyles" from the ceiling of Room Orthoceras and after some hesitation decided to give himself a better Mauritius refreshed with a hot shower in the cave: look for yourself ...
