Modern bolt and peg route to the left of Via Comici. The upper section is loose and less protected, most climbers therefore descend at half-height.
Getting there
The ideal starting points are Cortina d'Ampezzo and Auronzo.
These can be reached from the north via the Pusteria Valley, or from the south by first taking the motorway (A27) to Longarone and then following the state road northwards. Both points of departure lead to Misurina, from where a private toll-road winds steeply almost to the base of the Tre Cime's south faces. Park the car at Rifugio Auronzo, situated at the end of the road and either sleep here or in Rifugio Lavaredo, reached by following the path for 15 minutes underneath the majestic South Faces which contain, amongst many other famous routes, the Spigolo Giallo. Access
Approach ISO 2000 by following the path from the rifugio di Lavaredo to the Forcella Lavaredo. Continue on a small track which traverses left underneath the base of the North Faces. The route starts to the left of the Comici pedestal. Descent
Most climbers abseil from half-height.

Itinerario impegnativo, in cui ogni tiro va guadagnato, compresi quelli meno difficili, roccia buona ed esposizione massima, complimenti agli apritori. Itinerario da non sottovalutare, ma da consigliare.

Great and spectacular climb, excellent command of 6b is essential. In order not to get lost in the upper half expect a horizontal exposed traverse to the left in the 6a+ pitch. The final 6b is delicate to start with. Definitely a recommendation.

Con Chris abbiamo fatto la parte bassa e siamo usciti a destra per la variante degli Scoiattoli a causa della stanchezza. Gran bella via su roccia incredibilmente bella per essere in 3 Cime. Chiodatura buona. Bravo Kurt e compagno.
