A few days ago at the pictureque crag Chesod in Valle d’Aosta, Italian climber Marcello Bombardi completed the first ascent of El Puma. This old project was bolted many moons ago by local Hervé Barmasse, is completely natural, and now checks it at 9a. Here's the video of this little gem tucked away in Valtournenche.
