The Authors
Ettore Tomasi is a mountaineer, naturalist and publishing consultant.
Since 1958 he's been hiking, climbing mountains and dedicating himself
to naturalistic research. He has published a number of articles, hiking
guides and scientific works. Walking all over Europe he has developed
a deep knowledge of different mountain chains and environments. He's collaborating
with the Università degli Studi di Trieste as well as the Museo
di Storia Naturale di Trieste, and researching into cecidology in the
region of Friuli Venezia Giulia, particularly in his Parco Naturale delle
Prealpi Giulie. Mount Nanos catched his attention in 1966: since then
he keeps exploring the mountain in order to practice and to do botanical
and historical research.
Giovanni Stegù, born in 1944, is a keen sportsman (athletics and
volleyball) in his young years before shifting to sailing. On few occasions
he experiences hiking during rare summer holidays in the mountains. The
big change takes palce ten years ago, when he joins C.A.I. (Club Alpino
Italiano) to attend the course called "Rose d'Inverno"
(Winter Roses) organized by the Associazione XXX Ottobre in Trieste. Ettore
Tomasi happens to be his instructor and they soon become friends discovering
to have a passion in common: the mountains.
