La scalata effimera
Climbing with ice axes and crampons means entering a unique aspect of mountaineering. Ice climbing is an experience where great emotions are experienced in a unique environment that only the cold of winter can create. It is an experience that can only been understood by trying it.
An icefall is a stream of frozen water that is generated from a stream or other melted snow or ice.
The water that forms the waterfalls can come from autumn rains, melting snow and underground springs.
A goulotte is a narrow couloir in the mountains that is formed by snow or ice in narrow, recessed, and steep furrows such as dihedrals and rocky chimneys.
Ideal icefall, couloir, and goulotte climbing conditions are typically found in autumn and spring where porous ice is favorable because the ice axes and crampons can be more easily utilized.
A couloiris a narrow gully with steep slopes in mountain terrain. It is also known as a "passage” or “corridor."
