The routes

Great ice and mixed climb up the West Face of Sass Pordoi in the Dolomites, climbed over a two-day period after having fixed te first 150m of Via Fedele. On 3 December 2013 Corrado Pesce and Jeff Mercier climbed Via...

Eassy icefall in a great ambience. After the first step a long snow gully leads to the final pitch.

Great ice climb in Val de Mesdi, circa 300 mettere high, max WI 4, highly recommended

Interesting mixed climb on the north face of Monte Taburlo in the Ampezzo Dolomites. Three initial pitches, not particularly difficult but not to be underestimated, are followed by majestic ice pitches. The most exciting pitch is certainly the first frozen wall, 50 steep...

Ollomont and its icefalls are a real paradise, immersed in absolute peace and tranquility beneath Mont Vela and Grand Combin, far removed from the better known areas in the Aosta region. Gomorra is located to the right of Sodoma.

Goulotte del Pioda is a fun climb, with moderate difficulties, clearly visible from Val di Mello. In spring it is usually in good condition and the hardest section is the start, which appeared circa 20 years ago when the Pioda...

Fun climb in a great alpine setting close to the Grand Capucin.

The summit of the Langkofel shoulder can be reached via one of the great Dolomites classics, namely by climbing the first section of Raggio di sole and combining this with the icefall Cascata dello Spallone. As explained by Massimo Meneghetti...

If there is snow cover the icefall is extremely dangerous. The third pitch is outstanding.

The Grotta di Pian was bolted by Mario Prinoth and Renato Bernard, with the help of other local climbers. It is is an ideal training venue for bigger climbs in the mountains and to learn the subtleties of "dry-tooling". The...

Pleasant mixed climbing cave only 30 minutes drive from Bozen. The climbs are equipped as sports routes, with bolts and with a chain at the top. The overhanging routes have insitu quickdraws.

Hakuna Matata is a mixed and ice climb up the North Face of Wasserkopf (3135m), Rieserferner group, Tauern Alps. The route crosses, at 2/3 height, the line first climbed in 1977 by Werner Beikircher and Hans Kammerlander.

Happy Birthday winds its way up a long couloir, past ice runnels and compact snow up the righthand side of the south face of Aiguille de l'Évêque in the Grandes Jorasses group of the Mont Blanc massif. 1000m high, it...

Happy ending ascends the obvious drip in Val Trementina (Paganella). Happy ending shares the first pitch of Nido d'Aquila, while the belay is independent. Pitch two leads rightwards. Three bolts were placved on the second pitch as the ice was...

Delicate climbing up somewhat poor quality rock. Bolts at the belays and on the more delicate sections of both pitches. On the second pitch a short mixed section leads to a spectacular drip. The climb is located in a deep...

Superb route in a grandiose ambience. An extremely satisfying climb. In particularly good seasons the first two pitches form a spectacular hanging drip (70m III 5+). This has happened twice in the last 15 years.
