In reply to Lunar25: I would think twice about that route then. It's pretty high at the top, I.e. cold. When I went for the first time, my friends and I went in mid June and did a Vf on punta Anna, opposite the south face of t di r and there was still quite a lot of snow. We also had a crack at this route and ended up in the first amphitheatre on firm neve with only one ice axe looking at a long traverse. This summer I did the whole route and realised that the second amphitheatre is even deeper and gets less sun. Straight after this the route goes up some steep chimneys which I suspect would still hold ice at that time of the year. This time I did it in late August, the route was dry then, but on the summit and the descent there was still ice then! It's a stonking route, but very very complex to route find... Also you need to be well versed in pushing down on choss... And yes, the top traverse is beyond stunning, its some of the most exposed crazy ass hs climbing I've ever done. It makes your balls go right up inside...
