sure, I didn't mean that Italy has all, I told that ALPS have all that can give satisfaction also to all the extreme climbers writing herevisentin wrote:.. I think Austria also has ... France also has ... Italy ... none comparable to the "seas of ice" that can be seen in Swiss and the north of the French Alps.

Ten mile bushwacks, -30 C, continental snowpack, grizzly bears, mosquitos, black flies, 50 lbs. pack are character builders. That's why we're so much better over here. I'm never going to the Alps. Until I have the time. And the money. OK, as soon as I possibly can.
