In reply to martinmckenna:
''Alpi Apaune'': a small range of mountain close to the Mediterranean sea and to the leaning tower of Pisa.
Not high (1900m), not at high-latitudes...but gifted by Iuppiter (being in Tuscany it is not Zeus
) with damp snow, rime and questionable limestone.
Locals adopt the same Scottish bold ethics...and warthogs are well-known...
please note...the most part of their wall is in the 200m-400m range...but the best wall (in winter conditions) is 650m high with the easiest route comparable to the Croz spur in winter conditions...not too bad for a Mediterranean wall
))
exiting a 20-pitch north-wall (that offer you less than 30m of snow slope)
and seeing the sunset on the sea is priceless...
