Just read Malcolms article - good reading

Met these boys at the Sciora hut and followed their progress on the Punta Pioda from the Flatiron ridge. We liked their can do approach ie 20 odd pitch route on the first day out!

Descending by helicopter! Its alright for some. Gets rid of the "getting to the top is often the easy part" hassle.
