So the earth spins round the sun, the seasons change and certain traditions once more are kept. One of the once yearly appointments which a group of people look forward to with a healthy mixture of trepidation and anticipation is the annual trek across the mountains out of Tuscany and into Reggio Emilio – the Lake Angels Lago Santo outing.
Once a year a group of young (and not so young) men of Barga leave their respective partners and trek over the mountain out of Tuscany into Reggio Emilia to spend a night at Lago Santo. The Lake Angels are on the prowl.
Judging by the images* coming off the mountain this year, it would appear to have been a somewhat quieter affair than normal. Just compare the images above from this year and the ones below from 2009. *images by Andrea Baldi
To get an idea of just what a Lake Angels outing is all about … have a read of Rupert’s article (here) written way back on 2002
Watch as the faces of the Lake Angels change over the years;| 2000 | 2001 | 2002 | 2003 | 2004| 2005 | 2006 | 2007 | 2007 |2008 | 2009 |
