Sure makes one want to go climbing. Nice info on via ferrata and camping too. Perhaps if the Bishops at the Council of Trent had gone climbing on the Sasso, their time would have been better spent!

Thanks Mark! ut how on earth do you know what I plan to say about the ferrata? There's nothing on the page yet! Have you been reading my mind? Scary thought...

So now, Mark, have a look at the three ferrata pages, I posted. But probably you already knew the contents from reading my mind....
When we first started to climb one of our party had a big old steel carabiner. In retrospect I wonder if this chunk of iron was for ferrata. I understand that you often have a running belay between a cord to your harnes and a carabiner that slides along the cable for a running belay., Nice pages on the various ferratae with their escapes and estimated times.

Yep, you're right. Especially the ferrate in Brenta have this belay rope everywhere, even beside the ladders. So there is no possibility to fall.
If you use them. Which we didn't since we most of the time didn't really plan to go where we were going.
Beautiful work yet again Gangolf... are these places you go on the weekend and then come back and put up the mountain or places you've been and this is a backlog? Either way nice page... great photos. -Tim-

Thanks Tim! No, unfortunately my hometown, Mainz, is far away from any mountain. Lots of hills with vineyards, though. The highest "mountain" anywhere near is some impressing 840m high! With TV towers and radar :-(
But someday I'll just sneek outside and do a photosession on Rothenfels which is supposed to be the highest cliff north of the Alps. It's not very high but rather impressing. Can't be climbed, though since a road runs directly underneath...
So this is indeed backlog - sometimes as far back as 1996.
every day a new fine page of your's! How are you doing that? Don't you work anything??
Your page fullfills the picture of the Brenta. My next trip there surely will include the northern part.

Thanks Mathias! Indeed I have to work. But for the last couple of weeks I have been working remotely from my own home. So no time lost while commuting. And yesterday I solved my nagging problem at around 5 p.m. and rewarded myself with two hours of SP-work.
Cheers
