ViviDolomiti Scialpinismo Ai 4000 Delle Alpi collects the most important steep skiing and ski mountaineering routes in the Four-Thousanders of the Alps. Over 150 routes, 64 peaks to climb, new routes, and maps.   Fame at all costs is perhaps an obligatory path for many mountaineers. Even the great wave of the pioneering spirit has turned into a trend: steep skiing enthusiasts are countless. Couloirs, gullies, and small faces are crowded with skiers, and in ski mountaineering, tours without steep sections are dismissed. One should not be surprised, as this is just one of the consequences (perhaps the most positive) of the publicity we all sought. In our discipline, at least two personalities have always coexisted: the public one has been predominant but has never motivated the most significant results. As in the past, the best fruits and authentic renewal will come from the other soul, the one inspired by extreme skiing, rooted in a deep and silent sporting passion, and aimed at limits that make it a true philosophy.
