Cima Trento is the highest summit of the so called Gruppo di Rava, which curiously takes its name from the 100 m lower Cimon Rava, which perhaps happens to be more prominent from some viewpoints down in the valley.
Some remarks about Cima Trento:
1) in the majority of the maps it is wrongly named Cima Quarazza, after an error which occurred in the official IGM (Istituto Geografico Militare) map, sheet 061 - Borgo Valsugana;
2) it is believed to have exactly the same height of the nearby and nearly twin Cima Brunella. I think that it is actually a couple of metres higher, and this photo should confirm this;
3) it is known as a difficult summit, due to some tricky spots on both its normal routes, but now these spots have been equipped with a few pitons and cables that make the ascent safer. The same has happened for an exposed passage on the ridge of Cima Brunella. As a result, for the first time I could realize the job of: ascending Cima Trento from the south couloir, descending through the north chimney to the saddle with Cima Brunella, ascending the latter, and then making it back to the backpack which I had left at the beginning of the difficulties, with a Nikon D3000 + 50mm and a D7000 + 16-85 and 70-300 in it, such that what you see is taken with the poor Canon G1X.
Returning (after many years) to Cima Trento was an idea that I had since the day of

whose access route closely reminded to me the southern access to Cima Trento.
