Federica Mingolla climbs Digital Crack on Mont Blanc

On the 1st of July Mingolla repeated the beautiful Digital Crack up the smooth granite located at 3800 meters above sea level on the SE Face of the Grand Gendarme, on the incredible Arête des Cosmiques. The face, slightly overhanging and clearly visible from the Aiguille du Midi cable car, that was climbed free for the first time by the Frenchmen Thierry Renault and Alain Ghersen.

We’re bound to hear more in due course about the days Mingolla spent with Adriano Trombetta, Lorenzo Pernigotti and Federico Ravassard on the "roof of Europe", as well as more about other quick raids at altitude in the future. Mingolla, evidently, has the mountains in her DNA.
