The Man with the Iron Heart


.

 


The incredible, cruel story of Reinhard Heydrich, a terrible Nazi leader, head of the SS and the Gestapo, and the architect of the Final Solution. 

"Se comprendere è impossibile, conoscere è necessario".

Hitler: The Rise of Evil


.

 



The story of how it all started. From a small political party with big dreams and strong values to the dictator of an entire nation and responsible for a World War. Ideas, obsessions and emotions of an evil and brute mind.

Canyoning "Cormor" (Valmalenco, IT)


.

 Amazing canyon mostly underground. Check out the video below to get an idea.

The canyon consists of 2 parts:

  1. The first segment is a bit easier and with fewer "fully blind" sections. It starts just under the dam and it ends with a nice, high waterfall and a little lake.
  2. The second segment starts immediately after the waterfall. Walk a few meters along the path (not more than 100m) but do not hesitate to go back into the rocks. Initially, it is difficult to understand where to walk, but the answer is usually "as close to the water as possible". There are a few narrow, dark passages that make this section really beautiful. After 10 minutes of uncertainties (stay close to the water!) you'll find the first rappelling point, and from that point, the canyon will be more intuitive (but still dark and narrow). The canyon ends in a forest of big stones and from there follow a path to the village (5 min or so).

Notes

  • Bring a headlight (don't go in without)
  • Equipment ok
  • Dark and maybe scary, but not difficult. Flow is usually low, take it easy.
