This face is historical and famous in steepskiing. From Punta Helbronner this face looks so close but its so far away, i think thats why its not so very often skied. And its also very rarely in conditions. i have been looking on this face for years and always wanted to ski it but it has never been in good conditions untill now. But finally we could ski this left-hand route.

| This line was first skied by Stefano De Benedetti 1980 after that only reapeted once by Luca Rolli and Francesco Civra in 2010. |
