 ## A quick break at Bivacco Feltre
 
-TODO include also picture 28, 30, 32, maybe 35
+From the pass we walk down an extremely steep trail, initially very
+exposed, then less scary.
+
+My left knee has been doing well so far, but suddently I feel an acute
+sting of pain that almost makes loose my balance. This is not good. It
+is also very different from the constant, mild to moderate pain that I
+have felt when walking downhill in the past few days. But I push through,
+slowly and steadily.
+
+The fog becomes even thicker, at times we can't see much farther than
+20-30 meters.

+For a brief moment I catch a glimpse of *Bivacco Feltre* (1930m), a
+[sheet metal shelter](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bivouac_shelter)
+where hikers can wait for the bad weather to subside, or spend the night
+in case of need.

+
+We reach the bivouac at 13:05, and we decide to take a break. We eat
+a protein bar and refill our water bottles. Unfortunately we can see
+literally nothing besides the meadow around us and the fog.

+
+We need some rest, but we don't want to wait for too long. The journey
+is still long, and if we don't reach our destination before 17:00 we
+will probably be caught by the forecasted thunderstorm. We leave the
+bivouc at 13:30.
