<p>Important remark about the descent: Recently (spring/summer 2013), rockfall on the W-side of the Scioretta has destroyed the descent via Torre Innominata as described in most guidebooks. The Sciora hut now advises to descend to Albigna via the Scioretta couloir. This descent is however tricky due to loose rock. From the end of the route, descend by rappel in NE direction on slabby rock. You will now see the couloir through which to descend. It may be possible to reach it directly by rappel, otherwise ascend again in direction NW to the Scioretta untill you encounter fixed slings and a biner on the W side. Looking in W-direction you will see the Scioretta hut. The gully leading down there is however prone to rockfall and although tempting, is apparently not advised. Rappel 8&#160;m here (or downclimb) and you will see a tunnel heading down in E-direction (Possible bivouac, but windy). Through this tunnel you can reach the gully leading E to the Albigna hut. Follow this gully down in E-direction, until the gully splits into a wide, slabby gully facing NE, and a narrow, steep gully facing ESE. In the narrow gully there is a piton with a sling. We chose to descend through the narrow gully, which however is full of very loose rock, steep and partially covered in snow (August 2013). There are some slings and cordellettes to use for rappels, but check thoroughly as the rock here can be very loose. After a while the gully opens up in NE-direction to a wide and grassy slope. From there 3 gullies lead to to the Albigna valley. The most N of the three can be easily descended after a short rappel through the stream. From there 1,5 hrs through loose rock to the Albigna hut. In total the descend is long and takes at least 4-6 hours. Not to be underestimated.</p>
