Amiata Mountain, Catarcione: Elisa Roscini on La Groviera (5b+), nice continuous route, good for warming up.

Technical from start to finish, quite delicate at the start. Handholds and footholds are mainly pockets or horizontal cracks, both crisp and slope.

The rock walls of Catarcione are East faced. Thi year (2019), as a result of partial deforestation, they go in shadow since the early afternoon. But from next year the canopies of the other trees will become more bushy and the routes will be in shadow all day.
