Dolomites

We'd been dreaming of going to the Dolomites for years. We finally made it this spring, and it definitely lived up to our expectations.
We stopped in Venice for a day on our way in and took a gondola ride. Venice was gorgeous but much more crowded than I remembered. 

Our first via ferrata

We had a longer approach hike than expected due to some mis-navigation by Google maps (they wanted us to drive up a ski slope), but we made it to the top

Mini alpinists

Lake Sopris. The long hike in was well worth it.
