Bivouac Gervasutti (study ark. Gentilcore - Head ). |
The Bivouac-Lampugnani Grassi (type barrel "Apollonius") has been replaced with an absolutely identical. |
"The Magazine" (always CAI) announced that the now-degraded Bivouac Lampugnani Grassi on Pic Eccles has been replaced with its replica, identical but brand new.
Both facilities are located in the Mont Blanc massif .
Two radically different approaches, one discreet and conservative, the more intrusive but intelligent.
instinctively to prefer proven solutions and reliable, I groped a functional comparison between the two, trying to gloss over the fact that the Gervasutti (called Leap - Alpine Ecological Living Pod) was intentionally "oversized" and provocative .
► Structure: camp classic barrel model "Apollonius" the Lampugnani, four sections (units living / dining room, entrance units, unit bed and bathroom unit) for the Gervasutti.
► sleeps are 9 berths for the Lampugnani-fats, according to the approved scheme Apollonio which reserves a short side at the camp and distributed along the other three sides, in three layers. In Gervasutti seats are 12 and are placed in one of three modules.
► Size: Lampugnani the cluttered little more than a train compartment (2x2, 5 meters, 2 meters height) and weighs 1800 kilograms. Each module has a width of Gervasutti 3.75 meters, 2 meters long, 2.80 meters tall and weighs 500 kilograms (I assume without furniture). Once in situ, the Gervasutti will be 8 meters long, 3.40 wide and 2.80 tall and weigh about 2,000 pounds more than the furniture.
► Spaces: being a bivouac barrel, the interior has Lampugnani "by submariner" and the only comfort is a folding table in the center. In fairness, comparisons should be made with one unit of Gervasutti bed, which is 80 cm taller and 1.25 meters wide, while the length is the same: 2 meters.
