Fedele Scudiero

After his trip to Yosemite in 1979, Roberto Bassi discovered a new dimension of climbing: no longer summits to conquer, but extreme difficulties to overcome with the movements of the body, without any external help. Free climbing also developed in Europe. Zanzara and Labbradoro collects the testimonies of Roberto Bassi's closest friends, who trace his history as a person, as a climber, his decisive role in the development of free climbing and the changes in the culture of the mountains in recent decades.
