The bivouac, built in 1993, is dedicated to Luca Reboulaz (1961-1987), grown in Lignan, Saint Barthélemy. He was keen on mountains, cross-country skiing and ski touring. He became cross-country skiing instructor in 1983, graduated in Turin and worked for the Olivetti company in Ivrea. In July 1987, he died on Becca de Luseney.
