To date guide Ampezzo died at older ages is certainly Pompanin Zacharias said "Zacara de Radesca", born in the village of Zuel died on 26/8/1861 and 22/3/1955, the threshold novantaquattresimo years of age. Pompanin admirably embodied the golden age of going to crags in the Dolomites, was driving in 1892 and practiced without interruption for nearly thirty five years, retiring in 1926. Clearly the achievement of advanced age is a "Runs in the Family", since three daughters Pompanin have crossed the threshold of the nineties: Mary is off ninety-six years; Oliva reached ninety-five; Zita is off to one hundred and two. The company best known Pompanin of Zechariah, who in the twenty years 1892 - 1912 he carried out a fortnight, including some very interesting, is undoubtedly the "Camino Pompanin" on the N wall of the Croda da Lago Way, opened on 28/08/1895 with the musicologist Turin Leone Sinigaglia and his colleague Angelo Zangiacomi, offered climbers a 70 meter high chimney, which required a refined technique and was very "à la page" in the era of exploration dolomitic. Today I think that most of those attending the summits Cortina do not even know where he's at home that a fireplace, a hundred years ago that led to the Refuge Barbaria, who was born in 1901 on rive del Lago di Federa, alpinisti da tutta Europa. Delle tante vie del “Zaca”, che nei camini s'intrufolava come un gatto, forse un paio riceveranno ancora qualche visita nelle belle stagioni: è l’amaro destino dell’alpinismo d'una volta, che ormai richiede troppa fatica, sacrificio e rischio per essere gustato.
