"Got tight last night on absinthe and did knife tricks. Great success shooting the knife into the piano. The woodworms are so bad and eat hell out of all furniture that you can always claim the woodworms did it."

Re: Nice work!Thanks Michael!
It's a great mountain, but start very early in the morning, because the summit is always overcrowded...

good trip reportDon't worry Renato.I think that most of popular and easy summits in all Alps are overcrowed in July and August..The most important is this first step made by yourself above 4000m and great views on your photos!

Re: good trip reportCiao Ivona!
I agree with you, but I think there are many forgotten but wonderful climbs on the Alps -even in Dolomites!- like, for example, Monte Cristallo Main Summit, in Dolomites... if I'll have time I'll write a page about it on SP.
Thanks for your vote and your kind comment

Re: Congratulations!Ciao Butterfly,
thanks for your beautiful and kind words. I agree with you: I wasn't moved on the top, but I was very happy after, going back, at the end of the glacier...
It's a shame that a so beautiful place lost a little of its poetry because of the hundred of people that was there...
Un caro saluto

Re: nice work!Yes, it is! Someone skied the NW face (55° and more) some days before I was there (you can see the NW face in the photo of my TR)
