Idea Montagna Rutor-Sassièere mountaineering guide

Idea Montagna Rutor-Sassièere mountaineering guide: The project "Normal Routes of the Aosta Valley" aims to climb all the over 1200 normal routes to the peaks of this region, without limits of altitude and hierarchies, and to create a series of 8 volumes, where technical reports, photographs, and tracks will be included that will describe in detail and precisely the ascents made. A series of eight hiking-mountaineering guides, updated and all tested "in the field" by the authors.

Few areas of the Aosta Valley can boast a variety of environments like this small slice between Mont Blanc and Gran Paradiso, almost crushed by the two giants and therefore too often overlooked. The Rutor Glacier, with its crown of peaks, is often the only approach to this area, which is rich in pleasant surprises such as Monte Paramont or Monte Miravidi, Becca di Suessa or Truc Blanc. The volume describes 160 normal routes, which develop between lakes and peat bogs, stony areas and flowering pastures, on rocky spires or small glaciers.
