Mountaineering next to Mont Blanc, Ticino's Via Alta Verzasca, and the Tour de Monte Rosa [CTA ep4]

in 2021, I tried to backpack and climb for 1900km across the Alps. My journey linked trails, scrambles, via ferratas and climbing routes. In total I spent 61 days wild camping and thru hiking from Slovenia to Monaco. I made over 130,000m of ascent, and climbed around 60 additional peaks, many of which were graded mountaineering routes. In Part 4, I crossed the Via Alta Verzasca in Ticino, before climbing the SSW ridge of Basodino. Next was a link up with the Tour de Monte Rosa trail above the Aosta Valley. After arriving in the Mont Blanc massif, I attempted to climb a little-known peak, Petite Aiguille des Glaciers. Want to find out more about my journey?
