  • Alpine Climbing in the Mountains of Cogne
    108. Steve Sustad starting Pitch 7 of El Cardonal (XS). (Pat Littlejohn) MARTIN GILLIE looked nice from below but turned out to be nasty and Alpine Climbing in crumbling – the rock had taken a sudden turn for the The Mountains of Cogne worse, as basalt can. After struggling for a while I realised I could swing right to reach a big wind-eroded scoop which had been invisible from below – now the way was clear to the top of the tier, above which loomed the final 50m wall. We were now three quarters of the way up the face so the desire to finish it properly up the final tier was strong, even though the terrace below it prom- ised an escape of sorts. There was a possible line straight ahead but after 15m it was blocked by a rotten overhang, and to press on into XS territory at this point would have ruined a potentially fine route. Luckily, a groove 20m to the right turned out to have better rock and better gear than had been apparent from below. It led past an overhang to an amazing ‘bell’ of rock formed where wind erosion had hollowed out material behind the hard outer layer of basalt. By striking it with a karabiner you could play different notes in different places. I took cover in a cave stance while Steve dealt with the final pitch and soon we were on the great shelf where the cliff terminates, enjoying a breeze and views of the peak and the island’s interior. The result of our efforts was El Cardonal, a 13-pitch route that was sustained but nowhere too hard, definitely a worthy objective for people wanting to experience a long, adventurous trad climb on Gran Canaria.
