Costiera dell'Averta - Soli di ghiaccio
View route detailsSince Ape needs to test his injured shoulder, we head out for a little hike (?) in Val di Mello to climb a few meters in a crack and see if it’s healed. The crack is obviously facing the right direction, and after the first three pitches, Ape realizes it’s going to be a tough day. On the other hand, the route allows us to climb without putting up much of a fight, and even the wet conditions on the crux pitch won’t be a real problem. Once we’ve finished the main pitches of the route, we decide to continue on a route by Vitali and descend via the Val Qualido loop to the Passo dell’Averta. We arrive in San Martino in time for a quick dinner before heading home.
