Civetta North-West

A new monographic guide to the North-west of Civetta, the “Wall of Walls”, goes beyond mere mountaineering usefulness. In fact, it is included among the “dutiful” works, if only for the history that this wall contains between its cracks. From the first explorations of the Solleder-Lettenbauer, the first sixth grade route in the Alps, up to the recent achievements (also by the guide’s authors themselves) with extreme difficulties. A journey, that of this volume, which brings to light important stories, made up of risks, bivouacs, successes and failures, all with the common denominator of the vertical adventure on a vertiginous wall. 78 stories but also 78 timely and updated reports.
