Ghisolfi bagged the second ascent of La Capella in January 2018. At the time he told Rock and Ice in an email, “I worked about 10 days [on La Capella]. And at the beginning [it] was very hard even doing the single moves. Then I figured out the first and second part and felt pretty close around my 5th day, but then I broke a hold on the second crux and took me some days to do the move again without that intermediate.”
