Can you tell us more about Trofeo?
I tried the route for the first time last year. Adamโ€˜s video made me psyched to try it. I really liked it so I finally came back this year for a few short trips. On day four I fell very close and I knew I could do it. Then I did it on day seven with a good flow :) The route is amazing, it is mostly about pinches on tufas and the rock is rough and very fun to climb!

What's next?
There are a few routes in Tyrol, Weisse rose and Qui that I would like to climb. Otherwise, I want to do some trips but I donโ€™t have any exact plans yet.
