Swedish Mountain Guides alpine course in Monterosa

We share with you some pictures of the first alpine guide course of 2022 for the Swedish Mountain Guide Associations. On this 4th day in the Monterosa Massif, after a rough weather the past days, the guides really good weather and great conditions. And, more or less alone up in the mountains. A rare sight in this massif.

The face steepens before the edge, so the guide is letting out more rope to get over the ridge for a proper belay on the other side before guests starts to climb.
