A climbing trail has been dedicated to Bud Spencer and
called "Spaghetti Western"
A new climbing route in Valle d’Aosta was opened and
called "Spaghetti Western" and dedicated to the recently deceased
actor Bud Spencer.
On July 13, in the mountains of Valtournenche, Italy was
inaugurated a new way of climbing the rather with the unusual name. The men of
the mountain rescue service of the Financial Police, in fact, decided to
baptize it "Spaghetti Western" a new path to climb on Paretone
Singlin which they discovered and opened. It is a small but significant tribute
to the actor Carlo Pedersoli, aka Bud Spencer, who died June 27 at age 86,
leaving a great void in the world of Italian popular cinema.
As luck would have it the trail, opened after five days
of restoration and cleaning, it was "born" in the period around the
time of the actor's passing and that its discoverers were, fans of Bud Spencer
and of his famous series of "Spaghetti Western" films in the 1960s
and 1970s, such as "They Call Me Trinity ...".
We are talking about a multi-pitch route, many more
pitches. The route is deserving especially from the aesthetic point of view and
one of its biggest assets is the particular location on the sun already in the
early morning hours; in detail it spreads over 160 meters, 5 lengths and 47
bolts including stops. 6a and 6b are the levels of difficulty of the trail,
which is located to the right of Paretone and is of medium difficulty. The
basic materials are to repel down a rope from 70 meters and 12 referrals.
