Summer descent in the Dolomites

16 Oct 2017 1 2 548
Returned to the Dolomites and climbed the Via Ferrata Brigata Tridentina in cold damp conditions with Shaun and Gerena. The first snowfall was 2 days before this, and it made it much more difficult and uncomfortable. But great to be back and fabulous views and exercise. 4th September 2017.

This is another photo for my Cobbler album. I led this walk on Saturday 27th June for Glasgow HF Outdoor Club. Up the riverbed route, but it was too wet to walk on the stone. Myself, Allan and Stewart, with a couple of other tiny people accidentally creating a cool photo bomb. Ben Arthur (884 m), above Arrochar, Argyll & Bute, Scotland.

About 10 years ago, me and my mate Doug began a three year run of climbing holidays in the Italian Dolomites. This was a via ferrata route called Piz da Lech. We were fortunate that co-incidentally we were photographed by some other climbers at our hotel, who caught us scaling the rock face centre screen. How lucky were we? Above Corvara and Arraba in the Val Badia, Italy. I'm wearing the red helmet.
