Civetta nord-ovest – Argento vivo

In May 2013, the still wintry conditions on the north-west face of the Civetta enabled the mountain guides Stefano Angelini, Alessandro Beber and Fabrizio Dellai to open ‘Argento vivo’, a major 1,350-metre route on the Piccola Civetta with difficulties up to WI 6+, M8, A2 and V+, which they completed after two bivouacs on the face.
