Cesare Mestri makes a demonstration of the technique of rock climbing doing an ascent in the Sella Group in the Dolomites. Maestri starts climbing a fourth and fifth grade route unroped. Then he progresses through a sixth grade rock face, and ends climbing a roof using aid climbing techniques. Maestri, nicknamed the 'Spider of the Dolomites' is known for his solo repetitions in the Dolomites, as the first climber in the world to climb sixth grade walls, and for the polemic first ascent of the Cerro Torre in Patagonia.
