Ski mountaineering course – advanced module ASCENT DAY BY DAY

Drop: 200 m
Ascent time: 1-2 hours
Meeting point: meeting in Rhemes Notre Dame (AO) for equipment check and briefing.

After parking the car. we head towards the welcoming Benevolo Hut (2,285 m) where we will spend 2 nights.
We will find an area near the hut where to practice using the avalanche transceiver. We will also try and search for one or more people buried in the snow.

We set out from the hut on a long stretch with a gentle slope, up to the Fond Glacier, where the hillside becomes more steep and we must be very careful. We continue until we reach the summit of Punta Galisia (3,346 m). To go back to the Benevolo Hut we can choose a different trail.
At the hut, we plan our next outing, have dinner and stay for the night.

Drop: 1,120 m
Drop height: 1,600 m
Ascent/descent time: 6-8 hours

Leaving at dawn, we head to Granta Parei (3,387 m), the undisputed master of this valley.
Along this technical route you will have the opportunity to put into practice all the various climbing styles. You will also have the ability to assess snow and the surrounding area.
We will go back to the car by the same route.
