- Climbing the Piz Badile Nordkante. We took the normal route up and stayed in the Sasc Furä hut. After descending this awesome route we chose to bivvy on the Italian side. Due to a poor forecast we chose to descend to the valley bottom and use public transport to return to the car... this took a little while.

Amazing scenery.
Hey Phil, very nice Video you uploaded! Would like to do this route later this year - where did you set up your bivvy?
Do it! It’s a great route! On the moraine on the south side a good way from the cliffs and rock fall but before you really start to descend down to the hut.
Great video! How much of this is actually bolted? It looked like a decent amount in the video
Only the belays. It’s trad in between but helps with route finding and appends up change over at belays a lot.
Nice video as usual, thanks. What rope, and rope length do you use ?
That was a 50m. twins would make the abseils off the back easier, but be more weight... then again we had a rather luxurious bivvy that night so we can't talk about weight too much ;)
@@PhilBehan87 So... you are telling me you only carried a single 50m rope? Did you take, at the very least, an additional 50mm spectra/dyneema to use as a recovery cord in the abseils? With current 7,3mm Beal Gullys double ropes are usually my standard.... but a single Beal Opera + cord could also make a lot of sense and means less rope work at the belays. Great video!
@@miferna yup, abseils are a bit wiggly and our change overs were quick enough we just went with the single. We checked with a guide and knew we could do it fine. Longer would be mildly easier for sure though
Su una cresta del genere si usano gli scarponi non le scarpette
A very strange comment. Who cares? They can climb it in wellington boots if they choose to.
No thanks. Too much work and risk.
As far as peaks you climb go it’s pretty safe, but then that’s not for everyone. On a good day the views are amazing and the strudel at the top is great 😉
@@PhilBehan87 Sure. I believe you. That being said, let me put it another way. I find just regular everyday life challenging enough, I don't need to take on more. I remember taking some stupid risks when I was a kid and a teenager, but everyday life is challenging enough for me now, I get no thrills doing anything involving unnecessary risk now. Maybe it's just because I'm getting older, but I've been like this pretty much since I became an adult.
Fair enough, the mountains are not everyone’s cup of tea and that’s no bad thing. I hope the video distracted you in these testing times at least!
