L'homme au Serpent (Snake Man) 6b, Cima Ghisoni . Bavella, Corsica with Jeff Andreucci Click here for the detailed topo (in French) : http://media.wix.com/ugd/3b2a5f_36d9837e59f34ec4982221c5a91f3538.pdf The not so easy ramp on pitch 3 Snake Rack: 0.3 to #5. Stoppers. Maybe double 2-3 mid size cams. Rope: 2x50 An experience that changed the way I look at the mountains. First time doing a first ascent. Thanks to Jeff for showing me how it's done. From being too scared to lead, hauling, throwing chunks of granite into the abyss to catching snakes.
