New Climbing Route in Lanzo Named After Mahsa Amini
Gian Maria Grassi and Renato Giustetto, two Italian climbers, have opened a new climbing route on the slopes of the Lanzo Valley and named it after Mahsa Amini. Alberto Carsana, a national free climbing coach, commented on this decision, saying that opening a new route in the name of Mahsa Amini is a very significant action that reflects increased sensitivity towards women, even in the realm of mountaineering. He mentioned that usually, a new climbing route is named after someone who is often a strong climber who passed away prematurely. This is a way to honor and better recognize them.
