Also on Wednesday the law of the Bigio repeat: no I'm not talking about any rule left us by the late, great Carlo Mauri, but the law of "Grey", "Marino", "I missing "...

At 4:30 alarm clock, meeting at 06.00 am Ballabio among three perennial boys eager to bigiare the workday ... Besides myself, there are the two great Luigi Daniele Crodaioli Slowrun and that, face more or less awake, and there are specific appeal, the usual bar-meeting of Ballabio.

Caffettino quickly and then away, at a time of Resinelli. Take a step supported the Direttissima and, while already the heat is felt (and are about seven), the fog began to keep us company ... Nothing the dstrano in this heat, at least you keep the common place (not without truth) of Grignetta "Dante." Meta

now is the Tower Clerici, one of the towers of the Val Tesa Group, perhaps best-known neighbor across the Spire Teresita Angelina and Needle, located just behind the Pyramid and the Tower Casati and Palma, as the latter, rather little known compared to other peaks due to the access grignesche not exactly simple.

A little 'shy, maybe a little' hidden, it is unknown whether out of shyness or pride, the Tower Clerici offers up historical and fabulous of barrier Clerici (or Boga), 170 meters in some, difficulty IV + required a departure between the V and V + (but more more more, well, maybe the toughest Grignetta V), however azzerabilissimo.

The approach is Ravana, shortly after leaving the gully Val brim to catch a groove on the right and friable and crumbly, with a few points between the second and third degree dil, often marciotti (effect also famnosa Angelina landslide Spire) deposits not without some puffy slit at the base of which marks the beginning of the street.

The first pitch is actually a bit 'grim, so flush the crack with repulsive ... SI econ sal passages from a fissure IV + to steep, and very obvious spike.

Anyway, I'm a walking V + then claimed that return to be grade IV and then less and less complicated to stay comfortable.

The second shot is the most beautiful, at least according to me: a plate exposed and delicious, which are found only on the footings and the supports needed (to be studied very well the movements) but nothing more. All in good exposure. First you climb straight up handles a few notches and then to connect, to move right, rests on a few to be studied, almost to a spigoletto that can be used in full exposure to trace, at constant and never too difficult, to rest.

The third pitch, investment, followed by a groove-dihedral long enough, with a strapiombino and a couple of bottlenecks. Grade IV continuous air and beautiful, a sort of fireplace model for the creators of ways on dolomite. Really nice.

The fourth shot shows the last part of the channel and then, moving right, arriving on the crest. A bit 'and then grade IV and III + III. Here I decide to try a new job, barring that of ...

to take me to stop, I decided to take a good knife that looked solid ... So it was until I got "stuck" with all the weight that fabulous knife (which, anyway), yellow was a bit ...).

Result: deployment of blade and block the pendulum of the artery to loud noise and a few meters 150 meters below ... Skip

taken for a ride of his friends ...

"Everything okay?" "Yes, okay, I'm sorry for rather than the heresies that I took .. "" But it's okay, I figured ... E 'I did not know that barring works. "More jeers are not reportable for obvious reasons of propriety ...

The final ridge is a fairy tale ....
Espostissima , the third degree, air, and deliiziosa with fabulous views (despite fog) ...

shaking hands at the top ...

Photo Rite ...

rapid descent partition walls and grooves along the path Cecilia Grade II and then down to the Channel dell'Angelina, then again Direttissima and down to Resinelli, beer and cake ...

Shortly after 13:30 we are on the machine, serious faces, we all return to work ...

that remains is for the photos and send a heartfelt thanks to Louis and Daniel, two safeties in the mountains.

The biggest thanks, however, goes to Grignetta ...
Even with the fog, he always manages to surprise you.
