Re: The water

Heila larry! The impound of Davino is built up for feeding a power plant.
This valleys belongs to the wide Ossola area, where at the beginning of '900 the ENEL society built up a lot of impounds to increment the production of hydroelectric energy.
The area around the lake is further more a little arid so here the story is different from the one of "lago dei cavalli"!
Anyhow the wide plane below, the one of alpe Veglia is a lovely sprawl of green meadows!
