What you find in the detailed description
I remember ...
The exploration of Fosso della Madonnella was done from Fosso Cognolo. Though it was an exceptionally dry winter Cognolo had a little flow till the
confluence with main stream.
Photographs in this website show ultralight ropes (6 mm ropes made of high tenacity fibers). Read multimedia book Ultralight ropes canyoning technique to learn how to use them.
