Fiames Before winter, thirty years ago
Forse sarete anche stufi di sentirvi propinare le "cronachette alpestri" di chi scrive, in sostanza avventure dal I al IV, con qualche bella puntata un po’ più in alto. Ma tant’è: questo ho da offrire, nel rievocare alcune lontane giornate, e cerco sempre di farlo nel modo migliore. Prima di chi legge, soddisfa me stesso ricordare esperienze piacevoli, istruttive e che tornano spesso alla mente con piacere. Riprendo un argomento trattato spesso, ricordando che una delle mie due salite alpinistiche preferite è stata la parete S della Punta Fiames, per la via Dimai-Verzi-Heath del 1901. Dopo le prime due salite della “paré”, nell’estate 1976, I left to spend a few year or so, dedicating myself to something else. Easter Monday 1980 resumed the path of Fiames with Henry: it took a lot to tame the street, in a gray and cold day: the satisfaction was always great, but then I went up only by the second. On 8 / 3 / 1981, just thirty years ago, was the fourth ascent, the first winter, was with us Andrea, Feltre strong climber who died some years later in a motorcycle accident. In August, the fifth, which I did from the first to gain experience and by necessity, as my companion did not feel like doing it. In the climbs that I could achieve on the road, there was also space for another winter in summer conditions, less than two hours in a "canned" in a sweet company, one ended in a minor accident, a winter with an adjacent small "cioce" at the top. For completeness, I must mention the last, half-up: we were three and so slow that climbed on the ledge below (taken from arcane concerns) suggested that we go home we did not want to leave at eight in the evening. Return along the new berths, was fast and fun, but a bit 'sad. Since then I have not touched the rocks of the "like", which I run at least once a year for two decades exact and on which I must say that I always enjoyed.
