Mente Demente climbs up the righthand side of the face, between the routes Anita (Massarotto-Salvestro 1984) and Massarotto - Bellin - Sansonne - Zonta (1992). The start is situated on the long grassy ledge that cuts across the wall, next to the lone larch tree (orange peg at the base).
The climb follows a sequence of cracks and beautiful pocketed slabs towards the obvious crescent-shaped roof about halfway up the wall, here it shares the 1992 Massarotto route 1992 for a pitch and a half before continuing off independently. It provides some very beautiful climbing up pocketed slabs and excellent rock quality throughout, especially in the corner on pitch two and the spectacular pitch six.
