Spigolo degli Alpini - Piramide di Col dei Bòs
The Spigolo degli Alpini on the Piramide di Col dei Bòs — ten pitches at IV, a short way from the Passo Falzarego on the road towards Cortina.
Piramide di Col dei Bòs — Spigolo degli Alpini
IV / 10 pitches / Lagazuoi group, Passo Falzarego
The line takes the rocky spur of the Col dei Bòs, though despite its name it only climbs a short section directly on the crest and otherwise stays just off it. The rock is good, especially higher up, and the belays are bolted apart from the second, which is two pitons. There are pitons along the way, some cemented in, and the harder pitches are well equipped.
We finished by a blue-marked variant. Very nice climbing, though we still do not know which option it actually is or what it is graded — it was a bit damp, and felt somewhere around VI+/V.
A few days later on the same trip we climbed the Gianleo on the Croda Negra.
