In the Vallone della Fornaca (Fornaca Valley), between the Prena and Camicia mountains, there was no emergency shelter since the old Lubrano bivouac was destroyed by a storm in 1999. And since the Fonte Vetica hut burned down in a fire few years ago, there was no shelter at all in the south-western area of the massif.
Luckily, the situation has recently changed: in November 2024, 25 years later after the Lubrano was destroyed, a new bivouac has been installed in the same area where the Lubrano was. The new bivouac is called Bivacco Piergiorgio Desiati, in memory of a doctor of the alpine search and rescue team of L’Aquila.
The Bivacco Desiati is located in the Vallone della Fornaca, at an altitude of 1815 meters / 5954 feet above sea level. It is already present on OpenStreetMap (and all the derived map products), and Diego (a YouTube user) recently posted a video of the bivouac in winter conditions.
