Today I finally sent 'CAVE' (9-/9) in Settore Alto! This route was a true test of both physical strength and mental fortitude. The crux involved a powerful sequence through a distinct cave feature, demanding precise footwork and explosive pulling power on some seriously crimpy holds. The sustained nature of the route, combined with the steep angle, made it a real battle to the chains. The feeling of clipping the anchors after all the effort was absolutely incredible. A hard-fought and very rewarding ascent!
