"France - Corsica. Our seventh day on the GR20. We start from Refuge Manganu this morning and go up a snowy pass where we have a view on Lac Capitello. A rescue helicopter flies over. The sun is shining bright on the patches of snow. We move quickly. We get to Refuge Pietra Piana. In the afternoon we take the alternative 'route des crêtes'. We follow the yellow markings over ridges and crests and get to this peak. The final descent to Refuge de l'Onda is brutal. There is no end.. I get cramps in my feet and need to rest. Once at the hut spaghetti and an ice cold shower help me get back on top. When going to the toilet at night I see the brightest starry sky I've ever witnessed. I feel so small. Tomorrow we will go to Vizzavona." — Pieter • Jun 1, 2019
