Approach: From the start of Pattinagio Artistico traverse rightwards across a sloping ledge for 60m to a 2 peg belay. Go round the arete and up a short broken corner to a good bolt belay. Abseil 25m to the start of the route.
4 good 60m Pitches and another 2 easy angled snow / ice pitches.
Descent:
Escape leftwards out of the gully through trees until a snow slope leads to the base of the wall.

Gian Carlo Grassi et al 12/Dec/1986.

βeta: Traverse is well protected with bolts. No need for rock gear. On the traverse, there's a belay behind the arete, and then there's one more short pitch following bolts to reach the abseil anchor. It's possible to abseil direct from the arete, but the angle is extreme. There's bolts at the end of the abseil, which is the only bolted stance on the route. Take enough screws.
