A half-day to rest in Cortina and stock up on supplies and good food. We walked to Passo Falzarego at the bottom of the mountain, and then got a bus to Cortina. Until now we had been carrying full packs with all our gear. From here, we had luggage transferred every 2nd day so we could afford to take a light pack with essentials only from now on.
