Last Minute, new mixed climb in Dolomites Langental
Dolomites ice climbing: at the end of 2018 in the Langental - Vallunga, Petr Vejvoda and Jan Zahula established Ultimo Minuto, a new mixed climb to the right of the famous icefall Piovra.
In the small Dolomites valley Langental Petr Vejvoda and Jan Zahula have interpreted the famous icefall Piovra in a different manner. The Czech climbers ascended the first pitch of Piovra di Destra, ie the righthand branch of the drip, then protected by 5 bolts they breached a 20m section of rock to reach the hanging dagger and climb another 55 meters of pure ice.
The new variation was established on 29/12/2018, is called Last Minute, is graded M8 WI5 and is immediately to the right of Teufelsgeige. The first free ascent was made by their friend Danny Mensik on 30/12/2018, followed immediately by Vejvoda.
