Pizzo Coca
Pizzo Coca is a mountain that straddles the Val Seriana and the Valtellina in Lombardy, Italy. It is the highest peak in the Bergamo Alps (also called the Orobie Alps).〔 〕 Its height is 3,050 metres〔 with a prominence height of 1,878 metres〔 and a saddle of 1,172 metres.〔 A post-glacial valley exists near a point called "ometto in sassi" (literally "little man in rock") at 2,400 meters.〔〔
==Geology and orogeny==

The Bergamo Alps have three prominent peaks named Pizzo Coca, Punta Scaiss and Pizzo Redorta.〔〔 〕 As with its parent Alpine belt, Pizzo Coca is composed of "dark-coloured"〔 sedimentary mountain rock with "huge rocky spurs"〔 known as a pyramid type peak.〔 Pizzo Coca, along with the other Bergamo crystalline peaks, exist parallel to the Valtellina Valley.〔 〕 Narrow and vertical chimney clefts stretch towards Pizzo Coca's summit, which has rock debris, before it levels off.〔 〕 The mountain rises to 2,924 meters by "Dente di Coca" (literally Tooth of Coca") before settling out by Pico Coca's summit.〔 〕〔〔
