Description
The last one of the six classic north faces of the Alps, the only reason Piz Badile isn't more famous is because of its somewhat remote location, in the Grisons at the Swiss-Italian border. What it offers, though, is some of the most perfect granite in Europe and spectacular, surprisingly moderate climbing. Piz Badile itself is a fin of granite jutting out from the Cengalo massif, with its incredible knife edge North Ridge shooting straight up for over 1200 meters. The north-east face itself is a blank slab of grey granite, of which the clever Cassin route finds the only weakness.
This poster also shows a few routes on the north faces of nearby Punta Sertori and Pizzo Trubinasca.
