Mos_Chillin Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 Building a Via Ferrata is a matter of professionals and not everyone can build a Via Ferrata.

tivoli_mike Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 that's just wrong. Of course now we can discuss various discussions of via ferratas ratings.
