I Rifugi

a ridgeplot style map, showing the topography of the Parco Naturale dell'Adamello-Brenta, with a smooth colour ramp from pale yellow in the foreground to darker blue in the far-field. Along the right and left edges are names of Rifugi (mountain huts) and lines leading to its location in hills
I Rifugi: Or, coffee shops with a view. Or perhaps, Strudel di mele.

comments An attempt at a ridgeplot. Not wholly convinced the colour map works. Getting the lines from the labels not to cross was fiddly; my fondness for all lowercase makes the title look silly; fewer leader lines and some labels directly on the map might look better; an icon of a mountain hut instead of a square could work better, but might look a bit cluttered
