In 1958, Tullio Rigacci filmed an excursion on the Marmolada Glacier, in the Italian Alps. The footage shows the hikers ascending an initial rocky slope, amidst debris and scree, in a foggy environment, wearing typical period summer mountain attire. The camera captures both close-up details of the hikers' movements and wide shots of the steep terrain. Subsequently, the group crosses a vast expanse of compact snow or ice, with the surrounding peaks shrouded in fog. The alternation of close-ups and wide views highlights the majesty of the glacier and the harsh, wild atmosphere typical of glacial routes.
