The legend:

"To the Fazzon edelweiss - Lago dei Caprioli (Roe Deer Lake)"
 
In the St. Lawrence night, when you see a shooting star, according to tradition you should make a wish... A lot of time ago the mountains were observing the shooting stars (...). So they asked to the holy God: "Why don’t you give us some shooting stars, too? The sea is already well populated!". The holy God answered: "You’ve got a lot of wealth, too: woods rich of animals, lush pastures, creeks, lakes and streams...". The mountains answered: "But we’ve got the bare rocks, silent and lonely places, without life. We are not demanding much, let some shooting stars fall also where there isn’t anything but snow". The holy God agreed and during the St. Lawrence night of the following year the mountains were shining bright with the stars fallen from the sky; on their tops the snow white edelweisses had bloomed. »
