Summary:
This is the lower part of the long stream that flows through the valley of the same name, a large water catchment area fed by the glaciers on the north face of the Tessa peak. The stream rises at an altitude of three thousand meters and its riverbed is quite open and wide. It is very impressive how wide the streambed is in the part just before the entry point and how it suddenly narrows after a few meters. This feature should give us pause for thought about the devastating power of spring floods
