Marco Tullio......mi ha chiamato per dire che la pagina gli piace molto, ma il latino non l'ha fatto dormire.

Re: Marco Tullio...Grazie! Naturalmente si tratta di uno pseudo-etimo, ma fa egualmente piacere saperlo.

Re: Nice work!as for the info I had (I've not climbed it) it has a 150m high NE face (Icy or snowy) 45°-50°, so not difficult, while along the N ridge should be easier
edit : this mountain is a very fine ski-mountaneering trip
