GosiaSkorekFerrata route from Fedaia pass and Rif.Falier  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Jul 10, 2006

I climbed to the peak via ferrata twice. Once I approached it from the North from Lago di Fedaia: a beautiful ascent with views of the Sella and other groups. Before, also in the summer, I hiked up from Malga Ciapela through Rif. Falier and approached it close to the impressive southern walls. This route was longer and more lonely with almost no snow. Both are unforgettable and beautiful routes and the almost 2h ferrata to the top is amazing. Quite exposed at times but very well secured. Even in fog it was possible to navigate and reach the peak easily.

damgaardNormal route + VF route  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Jul 22, 2008

Climbed Marmolada on the 22. using the normal glacier route up and down (wind was too strong for the via ferrata route). rdeached the top in three hours. Down again in 1,5 h.
Climbed again on the 24th, via ferrate up and glacier down (though not much glacier left). The Via ferrata route is not that difficult and much less crowded. Very nice mountain indeed.

Date Climbed: Aug 18, 2007

We went both up and down through the glacier. The weather wasn't very good, but you can't have it always, can you???
Was a pity, that the next day the weather was really nice.

landrovalnorth-west face  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Jul 2, 2005

we climbed the ice-route on the north-west face, starting from Passo Fedaia. The first section was difficult because there wasn'n any snow and we had to "freeclimib" a wall covered with thin ice... crampons didn't grip!!
Dolomites' Lady is always worth being climbed.

with Jude.

Big storm on summit. Had to sit in the hut drinking tea for a few hours until it passed.



Missed the last lift down below the glacier but managed to persuade the operator to let us go down whilst it was running to bring up building supplies!



Very memorable day.

albertofangaRoute Climbed: via ferrata Date Climbed: July 3, 2002  Sucess!

Ascent with the via ferrata and descent via normal route through the glacier. It was so foggy that we did not realize when we reach the peak: we could not see the cross which was about twenty meter far away.

I climbed solo, it was a really lovely weather whole day. Start at Rifugio Pian Facconi at about 9 o'clock. On the summit at 2 p.m., I made some pictures on the way. Descent on the normal way, through Marlolada glacier. Full equipment for via ferrata and glacier walk was needed.
