Rayon IV - southern Fiemme Valley front Stand Schützenbattalion Auer Late summer 1916 - early 1917 At the time, Ponte delle Stue in Val Cadino was a relay station for the Cadinjoch to Montalon section. From here a path leads in a southeasterly direction along the Stue stream past the Stue bassa and Stue alta alpine pastures. In the late summer of 1916, the staff of the Auer rifle battalion was located on Malga Cazzorga (1,845m). From here the paths led to the front: Forcella Montalon, Monte Montalon, Cima delle Buse, Forcella Valsorda (2,256m). At the end of 1916, the decimated Auer Battalion, which only consisted of two companies, was disbanded and assigned as independent formations to the Cavelonte Valley and the Litegosa position in 1917.
