Hi there! I wanted to share a personal connection with the Capanna Regina Margherita. My father was actually part of the team involved in its reconstruction back in 1977. The stories and memories of that endeavor still resonate in our old family home. I wish he could be here today to see this video and witness the incredible passion that the current generation has for the hut. It's truly inspiring to see how people cherishes and enjoys this place. It holds a special place in my heart, knowing my father contributed to its restoration. Thank you for sharing this amazing video!

The shot of the moonlight hitting the mountains and the clouds followed by the lightening, absolutely gorgeous! 🙌

4:41 The night shot of the mountains, clouds, moon and thunderstorm is prob the most beautiful nature shot I have seen on screen.

This building was built in 1889. It was first constructed in the valley below, dissembled, then carried to its final location by mountaineers. A real accomplishment. That climb looks hard enough, without having to haul bits of a building.

I should point out it was totally rebuilt in 1977, but still, impressive.

My husband and I are senior citizens living in the US and recently found your Youtube channel. We are in awe of the mountains you hike with such craggy and narrow mountain tops. The views are amazing and your photography is wonderful. Thank you for sharing with the world.

The shots of landscape people can see today because of drones is honestly pretty amazing.

This is interesting: The construction of the hut was directed by the Italian Alpine Club in 1889. The hut was pre-built in the valley, then brought to its final destination by mule and then by men, and assembled on site. It was opened on 18 August 1893, in the presence of Margherita of Savoy, Queen of Italy, to whom the hut is dedicated.

Even more incredibile how they built that hut at that elevation.

When I saw the footage at the start I was like "omg where are these beautiful places" and suddenly realized many shots were of Switzerland, where I live and always have lived. I even grew up near the Alps, near Berns highlands. But I hardly ever go to the mountains anymore. I work in an international team at ETH Zurich and I see all the foreigners who come here and instantly spend every minute of free time in the mountains. Growing up here, close to the Alps, I've seen the beauty but also the toll these places can take. I have lost friends and family who have died in the mountains during various activites from mountain climbing, to hiking to skiing. None of them were inexperienced or wreckless in their behaviour - all were so-called "rare freak-accidents", but at some point, I had enough and decided to admire this part of my home just via videos, postcards, and - from far away. I hope you all stay safe up there <3

Everyone should see how amazing the snow on the mountain can look, the calmness in bruno's eyes, the beauty of the cinematography, shoot at 3 am thunderstorm hitting near clouds, This short film surely kept me engaged till it's end . Thank you for showing this to world .

That night shot was absolutely stunning.

[jeffreyrichbourg]

Who built that? As a general contractor, I cannot imagine the difficulties in the building that, there. The labor, material delivery, and who paid for it? Damn, what an achievement 😳🔥💯

Bravo Bruno, that was amazing. Giants playing with rocks and snow and forming a magnificent landscape. Clouds playing with the peaks. So wonderful. Thanks for you passion and sharing, your tasteful ways to let us take part!

I love these videos. I was lucky enough to stay in a mountain hut in the shadow of the Matterhorn when I was 16. Woke up to see the crystal clear mountains and the glacier below. A life-changing event. These videos bring me back to that moment when I watch. Thank you.

[bethroesch]

That doesn't even look real, it's so beautiful. Thank you for sharing this. It's really amazing

[njones]

Oh wow, I’ve loved your videos so much but seeing that view with the distant thunderstorms was AMAZING!! I’ve never been that high in the mountains and now being quite old I may never manage it. Thank you for sharing. It made my day to see that. There is no better view than a high mountain view.
Thanks for sharing Bruno, it’s your kind of content is that top 1% of YouTube content that really stirs the soul.
Thanks

I've been there a couple of times, also sleeping there, and would not recommend going directly to 4500 meters. Most people will get a bad headache and it can be dangerous. You should have at least two nights at lower altitudes first. That said, the drone shots are amazing!

[MrSychnant]

Incredible aerial footage, and you didnt mention the amazing lightning storms at night.

[bergwolf]

I just had 10 minutes off with a smile on my face, dreaming, I hear the crunch of the snow, breathe the thin air, feel the effort and the joy of arrival with goosebumps and pride, and these fantastic shots Grazie di Cuore Bruno

[TheMetabolicMadness]

Thanks for bringing us along! That was just epic... Especially that thunderstorm. What a privilege to be up there 🙏🙂
