Cerro Torre - Prima invernale spigolo Sud-Est - 1985

Travel back to Patagonia in “Cerro Torre - Prima invernale spigolo Sud-Est - 1985,” a short film from frankie’s mountain that revisits a formidable chapter in alpinism: the first winter ascent of Cerro Torre’s South-East Ridge. Set against the notorious winds and ice of the Torre massif, it centers on Salvaterra, Giarolli, Caruso, and Sarchi as they take on one of the most uncompromising spires in the world. What makes this worth watching is the blend of history and atmosphere—an unvarnished look at commitment when conditions are at their harshest and progress is earned pitch by pitch. In just over fourteen minutes, it captures the tension of winter climbing, the quiet focus of a tight team, and the stark beauty that makes Cerro Torre both a dream and a dare for generations of climbers.
