Day 3 - Rifugio Lavarella to Rifugio Lagazuoi<br />
C) Turn off of trail # 11 onto trail 20b<br />
and “1” to your left headed to <strong>the</strong><br />
Forcella di Lago (2486 m).<br />
Bailout Option see Opt-1<br />
D) From Forcella di Lago a short but<br />
steep descent leads to <strong>the</strong><br />
Lagazuoi Lake (2182 m). Recently<br />
rebuilt trail but still rock fall hazard<br />
– don’t l<strong>in</strong>ger, especially when<br />
walk<strong>in</strong>g underneath <strong>the</strong> rock face<br />
just before reach<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> Lagazuoi<br />
Lake (2182).<br />
This is ano<strong>the</strong>r example of a very<br />
well made trail, and it's a good<br />
th<strong>in</strong>g because this is one of <strong>the</strong><br />
steepest trail decents I have ever<br />
seen. There were a jillion<br />
switchbacks. The trail on <strong>the</strong> map<br />
<strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> area of Lagazuoi Lake<br />
doesn't quite match what we found<br />
when we got <strong>the</strong>re, but everyth<strong>in</strong>g<br />
was very well marked.<br />
The Lake makes for a beautiful<br />
pick-nick spot.<br />
We opted to have lunch on a bluff<br />
above <strong>the</strong> lake near some old<br />
stone structures, sav<strong>in</strong>g a little bit<br />
of decent / re-ascent.<br />
