Shifting Dreams

Overview

Caroline Ciavaldini embarked on an ambitious quest in 2015 to free climb the Voie Petit, a challenging 450-meter granite route rated 8b on the Grand Capucin at Mont Blanc du Tacul in Chamonix. First established by Arnaud Petit in 1997 and later conquered by Alex Huber in 2005, this demanding climb is safeguarded by a combination of traditional gear, bolts, and pegs. The journey showcases Ciavaldini's determination and skill as she tackles one of the most formidable climbs in the climbing community.
