La famiglia Corones fece costruire questa bella dimora di villeggiatura nel 1730, probabilmente su disegno dell’architetto Francesco Croce. Nel 1839 la proprietà venne venduta al conte Girolamo Radice in seguito all’acquisto di palazzo Brentano da parte degli stessi Corones. Nel 1860 una erede dei Radice, Teodolinda, la portò in dote in occasione delle sue nozze con Emilio Gabuzzi. Nel 1929 venne venduta da un erede Gabuzzi alla nobildonna Elena Pisani Dossi Beccaria d’Arena (figlia dell’insigne esponente della scapigliatura milanese, lo scrittore Carlo Dossi) e a suo marito, il Capitano di cavalleria Giuseppe Massari, i cui discendenti sono gli attuali proprietari. Le sale della villa che si affacciano sul parco alberato di 3000 mq vengono messe a disposizione sin dai primi anni ’80, per eventi privati. Dal 2015 è attivo nell’ala est della proprietà, il ristorante Villa Massari.

Notes on picture.

View from the Ros Bheinn looking back down the East ridge in between showers. Nice solid structure to use as a land mark in poor visibility.

The former school for Corbett. After the school district combined with nearby Downsville, it became a community center.

Bowral, New South Wales

Pretty cultured place, this Corbett hood.

Glamaig is one of two Corbetts in the Isle of Skye, a peak in Scotland between 2500-3000 ft. with a prominence of 500ft. There are currently 222 of them and this one is not a Graham or a Donald :)

Taken from the A87 looking over Loch Ainort

Multnomah Falls, the tallest waterfall in Oregon, drops 620 feet (the upper fall plunges 542 feet and the lower fall 69 feet with a 9 foot elevation drop between the two falls) and one of the most visited natural recreation sites in the Pacific Northwest with well over a million visitors a year. It’s only a half hour drive east of Portland accessible from the Historic Columbia River Highway or Interstate 84.

Washington

This picturesque farm was found down a random road in Washington state. At first glace the "house" building isn't a house. It is a barn and its chimney is actually a vertical pulley system for drawing up hay to its loft. There is a large pulley wheel at the top. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I have so many photos to work on that I don't know where to begin. I tend to save the best for when I feel confident enough. Picky, picky I know.

These old stores are in Corbett, NY. It was a company town for the Corbett Acid Factory. Acid was an ingredient in smokeless gun powder and there was much production during world war one. Corbett is now a wide spot in the road and a bedroom community.

The Rois-Bheinn round, Inverailort, is described in the Walkhighlands website as :-

'A true West Highland classic, this round of three great Corbetts offers some of the most outstanding views along the western seaboard. A rugged and challenging day that will live long in the memory.' They were not kidding!

For those who are not complete anoraks, the Corbetts are the mountains in Scotland between 2500 and 3000 feet high, and there needs to be at least 500 feet of descent on all sides to be classed as a seperate mountain.

This is the view from Druim Fiaclach to the three Corbetts of Sgurr na Ba Glaise on the left, Rois-bheinn in the centre, and An Stac on the right. These mountans are right on the shore of Loch Ailort which is a sea loch, and the climb starts from the shore. This means that these mountains look out over the sea to the islands of the inner Hebrides such as Eigg and Rum - in shot to the right of the picture - and further round to Skye.

Monty and I saw one other person the whole day, a bit different to 'honeypot' areas.

NS 115-28 throttles up at Corbett outside Holliday, MO with a fresh AC44C6M on point. Of note is the trio of Wabash searchlights that guard the end of the siding.

This place is Kaladhungi forest at the foothills of the Himalayas at Uttarakhand (India). The famous hunter turned animal lover Jim Corbett used to live in a cottage at Kaladhungi village, which is quite nearby.

Quick shot of the direct line to a corbett in Wester Ross as the sun goes down.

View across to the Fannich range (LHS) in Wester Ross from the ridge of a corbett Beinn Enaiglair. Sun just setting over toward Poolewe..Very strong icy wind sweeping over the slopes of the ridge, some respite behind the rocks on the left.
