The

Average Rating = 0.00/5 The "dry" pitch.

Paolo75 leads up the drier of the two waterfall pitches on La Fedele. He is acing the art of screwing the second (moi), who must remove various nuts while water runs down their arms and their feet slip and slide. Grrrrrr.

Life is Good

Average Rating = 2.00/5 Life is Good

The best part of climbing in Italy is the Reffugios (Huts) that supply beer and desert so that you are never far from food.

Descent from La Fedele

Average Rating = 3.50/5 Descent from La Fedele

After topping out of 17 pitches, we still had a precarious scramble along a chossy ledge to descend down to Passo Pordoi. The views were spectacular. Picture by Steve-o

Average Rating = 0.00/5 Top of Sass Pordoi/ Pordoispitze

view towards the Sella in the North, from the top of the Pordoispitze. Nothing special to see in this pic, just shows the insane stone landscape on top of the Sella.

Last pitch of

Average Rating = 0.00/5 Last pitch of "via del Galleria"

Last pitch of the Route "Via del Galleria", photographed from the top of the Pordoispitze. Given the Name of the route (galleria = tunnel) and the description we where expecting one of the usual old war tunnels that you find all over the dolomites. However it wasnt really a tunnel but this: The first one was squeezing behind a big tower in the middle of the wall, that was mostly detached from the wall. No chance to get through with a backpack on your back. Of course we all had backpacks with us ... lots of fun ... Also nowhere to built a belay, so the only option was to wedge myself into the tight offwidth, hoping that in case of a fall i would not be pulled out. The second "tunnel" is again an offwidth, between a tower and the main peak. However that got filled with scree and snow long ago, so there is only a small and dark, wet and cold chute left. Unfortunately thousands of tourist piss into the hole in the peak plateau, so you can smell the end of the route soon after you leave the last belay. But other than that: highly recommended route. Just make sure you are not claustrophobic and worthlessbelayophobic.

Sass Pordoi/ Pordoispitze from the Sella Towers

Average Rating = 0.00/5 Sass Pordoi/ Pordoispitze from the Sella Towers

I just love the look of that wall! Frightening and tempting at once. Unfortunately the weather did not allow going for it. Way to much rain for starting into that big thing. Oh well. Another thing on the "gotta go back there" list.

Middle of the

Average Rating = 0.00/5 Middle of the "Via del Galleria"

View down on the second party in the Via del Galleria. Incredibly chossy and hard to protect. Whole pitches without anything, belays consisting out of two rusty pitons and so on. But unlike some other routes just around the corner where the crowds fight for a spot at the belay, you are in perfect solitude. Typical dolomites climbing. Fantastic!
