High mountain
High mountain climbing and classic alpinism are not activities for everyone: the satisfaction you get from fatigue is something that borders on masochism. You get up at night, having breakfast while in the valley the rest of the world is still asleep, as it should be, you exit the shelter in the light of a headlamp and step by step climb towards the mountain. In short, the dawn lights up the soul and colors the landscape, you reach snow and ice and once crampons are on, you tie yourself on the rope. Determination is what is needed to overcome the fatigue and the extra effort caused by the thin air of high altitude, the same that you will experience back in everyday life. On the summit there will be time for hugging and to get excited, but without letting our guard down, we will only be halfway, because from the top there’s no way but back to the valley bottom. The classic ascents on the giants of the Alps conquered through the most logical itineraries, conceived by the great pioneers of the 19th century, are to these days able to give the most genuine and strong emotions of going into the mountains.
Following there are some proposals about exploring the mountains where I grew up. It will give me great pleasure and immense satisfaction to accompany you through the granite pinnacles that emerge from the Adamello glaciers and the Brenta’s dolomitic towers.
