Grandi gesti, Arenauta

The route, completely natural, climbs through the massive roof at the Grotta (cave) and combines the following 4 parts:
1) Super Daytona 8a+ section, which leads to a good rest
2) From here a traverse on "La teoria dell'8a", a boulder section that leads to a difficult clip (avoiding this clip and exiting right on good holds is "Piccoli Gesti" 8b+).
3) past the clip there is the real crux: 6 hard moves on small holds on an autonomous orizonthal section (8c/+ or 8c+ up to this point)
4) then, without any rest, the final section of "invidia" 8b+
