βeta: Had wanted to do this for a long time and came to have a go in 2014 but got rained off. Walked in and bivied under a boulder at foot of North Ridge. 4am alarm, 5.15 started walking to base of route, started climbing at 7am-ish. Route was busy with 5 teams on it and unfortunately this held us up and cost us almost an hour in time overall. Topped out in 8hrs. To be honest, I wasn’t that impressed with the climbing on the route generally. I thought the rock wasn’t that great and there was just a lot of travelling around on easy terrain with the odd tougher pitch thrown in here and there. Crux pitches were probably HVS, E1, HVS. “5a” squeeze chimney was desperate! Abbed down north ridge which was long. Would recommend going down into Italy instead.

βeta: Rapped Nordkante, really not as much faff as everyone makes out... 4/5 hours. 80m single nice for linking pitches, long pitches (one is 75m) and rapping the Nordkante as bolted rap anchors are supposedly 45m apart, although even with 80m a little down scrambling was sometimes required - never too hairy though.

βeta: The walk up to the Sasc Fura took us about 4 hours even with a helpful lift up the forestry track. Some ladders and chains but will need some more work in some areas to cope with the traffic.

βeta: Since the new walk in to Sasc Furä is much longer (5hrs), the routes of Badile are quiet at the moment. Rewarding climb on mostly perfect granit.
