The area
The Dolomites are in the northeastern part of Italy, below the Alps, near the
border with Austria. Our time here alternated between our hotels in the small
towns (Corvara for example) and spending our days trekking through the many
trails that crisscross the region. Hiking is fantastically popular among the
locals, and on the main trails you would see entire families out for
the day... from the grandfolks down to the kiddos, even the pet dog!

The geography
The Dolomites are named after the French guy, Déodat de Dolomieu, who first
described them in 1794. The rock itself is actually called dolomite,
and takes on a whole range of colors during the day as the light changes. The formations themselves
are steep and rugged.

EXPOSED!
This website has uncovered shocking evidence that George and Nancy Kierspe have NEVER CLIMBED A MOUNTAIN IN THEIR LIVES!!
They have manufactured a web of deceit for years, relying on trick photography and bribes to make people THINK they are
accomplished trekkers. But here we have clear photographic evidence of their shenanigans! Not only have they taken
chair lifts to surmount all of their supposed "conquests", but they actually take them down as well!
Although they appear to be waving merrily in the photos, they are, in fact, beckoning to their henchmen to
confiscate my film before their vile trickery could be exposed! This correspondent narrowly escaped
with his life!
