Another Sunday, another mountain.  We went to Val Vaita on the backside of Mon Viso again and this time hiked up a much longer but gradual trail.  The signs posted at the trail head said 2 hrs 40 minutes but them sonsabitches that timed it were obviously younger and fitter than us.  It took us over 3 hours.  There were the usual eighty year-olds putting us to shame by looking fresh as daisies while we sweated and panted.
