Honorable Mention
Above sea level
DESCRIPTION
The cliff of Capo Noli, just outside the municipality of Finale Ligure (IT), has attracted local climbers since its earliest years thanks to its majesty. On these white cliffs, overlooking the sea, runs a historical, iconic route: Dancing Dalle, the first 7a of Finale. The first ascent was made by the legendary climber Patrick Berhault in the 80's.
The route runs on a smooth vertical shield with small holds, and the rusty chain makes lead climbing and belaying quite the scary experience, especially with higher waves.
Here Alberto and Simone took the risk to make their free ascent, and both succeeded.
