Last Night 9a by Pietro Vidi
Can you tell us more about the ascent?
I arrived in Spain wanting to climb short routes in Laboratori but the heat forced us to climb in La Capella. I checked Last night on the first day of the trip and managed to send it quite quickly after finding my own beta as Will Bosi’s beta was just impossible for me.
The route climbs better than expected. Even though it is chipped it offers some really fun moves. I’m satisfied to have finally ticked a 9a but I’m definitely more psyched to come back to Ticino to try some hard stuff!
What do you have in mind in Ticino?
I was trying Primitivo (8C) before leaving, but also Forgotten Gem (8C) is high on the list!
