SUMMER 2005
- September 11th: Fagaras. When descending four days before the Strunga Dracului I decided to visit the
place again, together with Strunga Doamnei. To reach them I've chosen two
path rarely used and the result was a nice day out. After parking the car &
wife at the Piscu Negru Chalet I've climbed the Lespezi Valley
(this marking is not mentioned on older maps) until it crosses
the trail which climbs from Arefu to Negoiu
; from here
I've descending thn climbed the other side of Caldarea Berbecilor 
,
until the top of the Strunga Doamnei, which I descended 
, then I climbed
Strunga Dracului 
; finally the return was on the Negoiu-Arefu trail until
the Podeanu-Florea saddle from where I took another trail to Piscu
Negru 
.
Alone.
SPRING 2003
- May 25th: Fagaras. Circular trip from Piscu Negru - Caltun Lake
- main ridge - Strunga
Doamnei - Negoiu Peak - Caldarea Berbecilor - Lespezi valley .
One of the two
dangerous trips of 2003; I lost the path when returning (even having map
and GPS!) so I had to go/climb some boulders 
and for the final part I
got half an hour of heavy rain.
Alone.
