https://sites.google.com/view/rifugioalpinicantoalto On May 25, 2018, the Sorisole Alpine Group called together the various associations in the area, including the other Alpine groups of Petosino and Azzonica, to find a solution to the management of the Canto Alto Refuge, which until then had been managed by their “veci alpini”. A “PROMOTING COMMITTEE” was formed which, together with the Sorisole Alpine Group, presented the idea of the association to the public on September 14, 2018. More than 100 people from Sorisole and neighboring towns were present at the meeting. The first memberships were collected and on October 12, 2018, the “Amici del Canto Alto” association was officially born, whose bond with the Alpini is indissoluble. Article 1 of the Association's statute in fact states: "... the association called "Amici del Canto Alto", territorial structure of the A.N.A. Alpine Group of Sorisole, Bergamo Section, of which it is a full member... The association is dependent and subordinate to the Alpine Group of Sorisole, A.N.A. Bergamo section..." On December 8, 2018, the Refuge reopens with the new management by the Association Amici del Canto Alto
