climbed with Natalia and Ivona. Snow conditions good only before sunrise. Descent by rappels along the same route.
Normal- 28 Aug 2008, Solo
5 hours roundtrip from parking, not using cablecar. I was first to the summit that day. Nasty glacier :/ and perfect weather.

Normal route + VF route
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.

Punta Penia
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.

In 2006 we reached the Punta Serauta by the Ferrata ETERNA - also very nice route.

North face - ascend and ski descent
Climbed and skied Marmolada north face (50°), together with Deon Louw (telemark skier).
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.

Ferrata on Cresta Occidentalle...
From passo Fedaia to forcella de la Marmolada and then by icy ferrata.Descent by Via normale.
Great panorama from the summit and great lunch too ;-).
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!
Route Climbed: via ferrata Date Climbed: July 3, 2002
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.
Route Climbed: from north to south Date Climbed: 25 September 1999
Beautiful day trip: Lago di Fedaia - cable-car to Pian dei Fiacconi - Ghiacciai del Vernel - Forc. la delle Marmolada 2896 - Via ferrata Marmolada - Punta Penia (Marmolada) 3343 m- Forc. la della Marmolada - Valle di Contrin - Val Rosalia - rifugio Contrin 2016 - Val di Contrin - Alba - Canazei 1440 m
Route Climbed: acent: ferrata Hans Seiffert, descent through glacier Date Climbed: July 15th, 2005
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.
Route Climbed: Ascent: West ridge via ferrata, descent: Normal route via glacier Date Climbed: 31. August 2005
Beautiful round-trip from Pian dei Fiaccioni via the small vernel glacier, the via ferrata (H.-Seiffert way) to the summit and back via the marmolada glacier (normal route).
Route Climbed: Up the West ridge via ferrata, down the Normal route Date Climbed: 2 Sep 2005
Two French hikers without crampons, helmet, harness, ferrata gear or rope had to be helped and turned back after falling and sliding a couple of meters on the Western glacier halfway to the start of the ferrata. The caretaker in the refuge at the top is very friendly and even speaks Hungarian! An unpleasant thunderstorm on the way down below Pian dei Fiacconi.
