DescriptionThere is a public of mountain enthusiasts who love via ferratas: routes equipped with metal cables, fixed anchors of various kinds, ladders and suspended bridges that make a rock face more accessible to mountaineers, allowing them to travel along it more easily and reach more or less high peaks. Via ferratas have a glorious past and have been significantly revalued by climbing tourism over time.
Today, via ferratas represent a recreational activity accessible to many athletes and, with this book, the author, an expert Alpine Guide, accurately presents and describes all the Lombard itineraries, describing not only the necessary logistical information but also the state of equipment and maintenance. The guide also contains valuable advice on correct safety and progression techniques, expressed in a clear and simple way, to allow even the least experienced user to perform them correctly.
The goal is to offer the public quality information, freeing them from the uncertainties of a web search, until now the main source of information. In fact, not everyone is able to discern the quality of information on the internet, in an activity whose margin of risk is real as in all mountaineering activities, especially in this one that seems (and in part is) affordable for an audience of less expert mountaineers.
Andrea "Bedoii" Carì. He had barely completed his studies in psychology and psychotherapy when his passion for the mountains took over: He realized his dream of becoming a mountain guide and subsequently founded the "Mountain Dream Guides" group in Valsassina. From his perspective, this was a predestined path, because, as Andrea likes to say, "some professions aren't chosen; they're written directly into our DNA."
He has climbed mountains in Europe and around the world, but his home mountains are and remain the Grigne and the Orobie (where he is also a park ranger). There, he has opened several new routes and climbing crags, even in wild and remote corners. At just 18, he followed in his father and sister's footsteps and joined the mountain rescue service, which gradually became his second family. There he was able to apply what he had learned during his studies as a psychological trainer and live out his passion for dogs as an avalanche dog handler. Together with colleagues from the “Mountain Dream Guides” group, he took part in advanced training courses in the construction and renovation of via ferratas and works in the training and course sector.
