Grandes Jorasses
The guys set off from a portaledge at 7.00 am and climbed first via 7 already fixed ropes, then a pitch up to the roof and 6 pitches on the summit ridge right to the top. The roof is abrupt. At 5.00 pm the team was already at the summit. And at 8.30 pm they got back to the portaledge. Tomorrow - reppelling straight up to the glacier, 7 pitches down on ice and on a snow slope right up to the hut.
17:25 "We have summited. It's a very abrupt roof. Weather: the sun shines through clouds. In Italy weather is just like in summer. Begin to descend. Everything is OK."
17:46 Total 27 pitches, roof - 6, start in 7.
20:54 They reached the portaledge. All is well. Tomorrow they will continue up to the hut.
