MOUNT CLAPIER
(q. 3045) - Technical rating: EE
|
Updated August 2000
INFO:
Starting point: Pagari refuge (elevation gain from refuge to summit: about 450 m.) - The description here below concerns the summer season, usually snowless. However, in the early season, you can climb the summit on 40-45° slopes covered with snow. For information about snow conditions, please contact the refuge keeper.
The whole trail runs through boulders and easy rocks, but experience on rugged terrain in required.
|
TRAIL:
From the refuge hike briefly down the approaching trail and then resume the ascent veering right and following the ridge (cairns). Follow the red signposts along a rocky ledge, veer left along a ridge up to a scree ledge. Hike slightly down and then continue on the level through the rocks (red signposts). After a short slope, reach the Pagari Pass (2819 m.). A breathtaking panorama unfolds from this saddle! Hike down along the trail (follow cairns) to about 2650 m. of elevation, where the path forks. Take the left fork (the right path leads to the Nizza refuge) aiming for the South West slopes of mount Clapier (follow cairns, one of them is made with an animal skull!). The path climbs the West side of mount Clapier onto rocky steps up to the summit (2h - 2,5h from the hut).
Descent:
Hike the trail backwards to reach the Pagari hut. |
