T<\/span>hese meetings are rare, and precious. At the beginning of the season, the ski or ice gatherings as here in Cogne, are a gamble – that of the conditions – and a promise: that of bathing for three days in the culture of ice climbing, in one of its most beautiful Alpine locations: in Cogne in the Aosta region.<\/p>\n Do we need to introduce Cogne? Take beautiful villages – Cogne, Lillaz – still preserved, with traditions, local wine and cheese (Fontine) in abundance, the proximity of the Gran Paradiso National Park, and of course, icefalls galore, Cogne being situated at an altitude of over 1500 meters. Add to this the warm welcome of the locals, and you have one of the most beautiful European spots for this slice of winter mountaineering that is ice climbing.<\/p>\n It is in Lillaz, a hamlet above Cogne, that Matthias Scherer<\/strong> lives all year round. He organises the Cogne Ice Opening, a three-day festival and workshops dedicated to ice climbing. This Thursday, December 15th, was the start of three days of meetings, and of ice, as the cold snap of early December has begun to take its toll.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ max_width=”1200px” use_custom_width=”on” custom_width_px=”800px” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/alpinemag.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/jocelynchavy_cogne-9466-2.jpg” title_text=”jocelynchavy_cogne-9466-2″ show_in_lightbox=”on” show_bottom_space=”off” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.19.0″ width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.0″ text_font=”Merriweather|900|||||||” text_font_size=”16″ custom_margin=”||||false|false” border_style=”solid” saved_tabs=”all” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Mount Blanc from Lillaz \u00a9JC<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/alpinemag.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/jocelynchavy_cogne-4671.jpg” title_text=”jocelynchavy_cogne-4671″ show_in_lightbox=”on” show_bottom_space=”off” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.19.0″ width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.0″ text_font=”Merriweather|900|||||||” text_font_size=”16″ custom_margin=”||||false|false” border_style=”solid” saved_tabs=”all” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Cogne Ice Opening \u00a9JC<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ max_width=”1200px” use_custom_width=”on” custom_width_px=”800px” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/alpinemag.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/jocelynchavy_cogne-2.jpg” title_text=”jocelynchavy_cogne–2″ show_in_lightbox=”on” show_bottom_space=”off” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.19.0″ width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.0″ text_font=”Merriweather|900|||||||” text_font_size=”16″ custom_margin=”||||false|false” border_style=”solid” saved_tabs=”all” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Welcome to Cogne ! \u00a9JC<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_margin=”-1px|auto||auto||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_testimonial quote_icon_color=”#000000″ quote_icon_background_color=”#ffffff” _builder_version=”4.19.0″ body_font=”Oswald|700||on|||||” body_text_align=”center” body_text_color=”#000000″ body_font_size=”30″ use_background_color=”off” custom_margin=”||||false|false” saved_tabs=”all” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Early season update<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_testimonial][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ max_width=”800px” custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_padding=”0|0px||0px|false|false” use_custom_width=”on” custom_width_px=”800″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.0″ text_font_size=”16px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n As Benjamin Ribeyre<\/strong>, one of the guides who supervised the festival’s workshops, tells us: “There is a certain heterogeneity in the groups and in the end it is a very good thing. Why is this a good thing? Because the more experienced people give advice and tips to the beginners, an exchange that offers so many ways to remember good practices.<\/em>” This is the whole point of the early season events, explains Benjamin, who is also president of the Oisans-Ecrins guide company at La Grave.<\/p>\n “Like the Premi\u00e8res Neiges event last Saturday in Villar d’Ar\u00e8ne, dedicated to the discovery of ski touring and snow prevention, the Cogne Ice Opening workshops are an opportunity to get back into the swing of things at the beginning of the season: technique, safety, on all terrains, for everyone – and even for the guides! In the Amphitheatro sector we were able to offer both pure ice lines and dry tooling routes.<\/em>“<\/p>\n The day before, it’s a tool sharpening session with Petzl. In the evening, after one (or two) beers at the Bar Cascate<\/em>, it’s an opportunity to discuss the different ways of dealing with ice: the debate rages on between the supporters of the “North American” ethic, according to which no rope party can go behind a rope party that has already started a stunt, and the more … lax (or French) climbers, for whom, despite the obvious risks of falling icicles, it remains possible. Fortunately, in the classics like Lau Bij<\/em> (two pitches), the few aspiring climbers wait their turn.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ max_width=”1200px” use_custom_width=”on” custom_width_px=”800px” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/alpinemag.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/jocelynchavy_cogne-9077.jpg” title_text=”jocelynchavy_cogne-9077″ show_in_lightbox=”on” show_bottom_space=”off” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.19.0″ width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.0″ text_font=”Merriweather|900|||||||” text_font_size=”16″ custom_margin=”||||false|false” border_style=”solid” saved_tabs=”all” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n On the Molines site. \u00a9JC<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/alpinemag.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/jocelynchavy_cogne-9123.jpg” title_text=”jocelynchavy_cogne-9123″ show_in_lightbox=”on” show_bottom_space=”off” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.19.0″ width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.0″ text_font=”Merriweather|900|||||||” text_font_size=”16″ custom_margin=”||||false|false” border_style=”solid” saved_tabs=”all” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n The trainees enjoy the morning sun in Molines. \u00a9JC<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ max_width=”1200px” use_custom_width=”on” custom_width_px=”800px” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/alpinemag.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/jocelynchavy_cogne-0154.jpg” title_text=”jocelynchavy_cogne-0154″ show_in_lightbox=”on” show_bottom_space=”off” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.19.0″ width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.0″ text_font=”Merriweather|900|||||||” text_font_size=”16″ custom_margin=”||||false|false” border_style=”solid” saved_tabs=”all” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n The group on the site of Molines, in the fresh air! \u00a9JC<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”” custom_margin_phone=”” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|desktop” custom_padding=”4px||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ max_width=”800px” custom_margin=”50px|||” custom_padding=”0|0px|22.796875px|0px|false|false” use_custom_width=”on” custom_width_px=”800″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.0″ text_font_size=”16px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n For three days, the participants of the Cogne Ice Opening<\/strong> were able to test the latest Scarpa boots, the ice axes and crampons provided by Petzl, Camp and Grivel, and even test the Samaya bags, before heading for the workshops: in Molines, a section of waterfalls has been created by watering, and is a superb spot of about twenty metres high and one hundred metres wide, enough to put a bunch of reels on! Another ideal sector: the Amphitheatre of Lillaz, just above the eponymous waterfall, which reserves pillars of ice and dry tooling lines, all supervised by the guides of Cogne and Aosta Valley, the guide Heike Schmitt<\/strong>, as well as two French guides, B. Ribeyre and Aur\u00e9lien Vaissi\u00e8re.<\/p>\n For three days, the participants of the Cogne Ice Opening were immersed in the culture of ice and mountaineering, including high-flying, with the Saturday evening event in the Cogne cinema. Three films were presented. The first was by Matteo Della Bordella and David Bacci who told the story of their first ascent of Cerro Torre (with Mr De Zaiacomo). Brothers In Arms<\/em> was the conclusion of a long quest, started by the British climbers, and completed by the Italians – Matteo Della Bordella’s Ragni di Lecco rope party, a great achievement overshadowed by the death of Korra Pesce, killed by blocks of ice while opening another route parallel to the Italians’.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row

Et puis d\u00e8s le tunnel du Mont-Blanc franchi, ce sont les vacances, avec les piolets qui d\u00e9mangent !<\/strong><\/h2>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=\"1\" _builder_version=\"4.16\" custom_margin=\"||||false|false\" custom_padding=\"||3px|||\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"][et_pb_row _builder_version=\"4.16\" max_width=\"800px\" use_custom_width=\"on\" custom_width_px=\"800px\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"][et_pb_column type=\"4_4\" _builder_version=\"4.16\" custom_padding=\"|||\" global_colors_info=\"{}\" custom_padding__hover=\"|||\"][et_pb_text _builder_version=\"4.19.0\" text_font_size=\"16px\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"]\n\n[dropcap size=big]C[\/dropcap]es rendez-vous sont rares, et pr\u00e9cieux. En d\u00e9but de saison, les rassemblements de ski ou de glace comme ici \u00e0 Cogne sont un pari - celui des conditions - et une promesse : celle de baigner pendant trois jours dans la culture de la cascade de glace, dans l\u2019un de ses plus beaux lieux alpins : \u00e0 Cogne dans la r\u00e9gion d\u2019Aoste.\n\nFaut-il pr\u00e9senter Cogne ? Prenez de beaux villages - Cogne, Lillaz - encore pr\u00e9serv\u00e9s, des traditions, du vin local et du fromage (la Fontine) en quantit\u00e9, la proximit\u00e9 du parc national du Grand Paradis, et bien s\u00fbr, des cascades de glace \u00e0 profusion, Cogne \u00e9tant situ\u00e9 \u00e0 plus de 1500 m\u00e8tres d\u2019altitude. Ajoutez l\u2019accueil chaleureux et en fran\u00e7ais des habitants, et vous obtenez l\u2019un des plus beaux spots europ\u00e9ens pour cette tranche d\u2019alpinisme hivernal qu\u2019est la cascade de glace.\n\nC\u2019est d\u2019ailleurs \u00e0 Lillaz, hameau au-dessus de Cogne qu\u2019habite \u00e0 l\u2019ann\u00e9e Matthias Scherer, qui organise le Cogne Ice Opening, trois jours de festival et d\u2019ateliers d\u00e9di\u00e9s \u00e0 la cascade de glace.
