Fresh snow descent from Val Mezdí valley in the Sella group - Description

The ski tour through the Mezdí Valley is one of the classics among the off-piste itineraries in the Dolomites. The tour runs from south to north and is characterized by a short crossing of the Sella-massif with only little difference in height, and by a steep and technical descent to Colfosco, through this narrow valley in the middle of the rocks.
Caution:
- The tour is classified as moderate, but it should not be underestimated, as it can be very demanding in case of wind or icy snow.
- It is recommended to be accompanied by a local alpine guide.
