| telemarkdude | Adopt a Climber Trip  Date Climbed: Jul 3, 1989 | |
| Loved the climb. At the summit, we ended up taking on two other climbers onto our rope that were a bit freaked about descending the peak. Both were inexperienced and one was half stumbling descending the steep snow; I took the rear and kept thinking I'd have to do a group arrest with each plant of my axe. | |

| gimpilator | 4 Peaks Of Monte Rosa Date Climbed: Jul 23, 2012 | |
| We started from Klein Matterhorn and did the west peak of Breithorn. Over the next 2 days we climbed Pollux, Castor, and Ludwigshoehe before descending the Gorner Glacier to the Monte Rosa Hut. At this point I had to descend all the way to Visp to get surgery for a strange illness and we were not able to climb Dufourspitze as we had planned. | |

| il.rocciatore | Route Climbed: Traverse Date Climbed: august 2011 | |
| Traverse from the bivouac Rossi e Volante. Easy climbing and swift progress to the base of the Breithorn Central. Climbed the first step directly (graded IV), which isn't that hard if you keep your nerves together when searching for the next good hold or belay point. Second and third step are a piece of cake compared with the first one. Nice snow ridge on to final summit. | |

| skotty | Via the half traverse Date Climbed: Aug 20, 2011 | |
| The half traverse is a fun alpine rock route. Don't waste your time with the normal snow slope route. | |

| cabouckaert1 | Short Climb Date Climbed: Aug 10, 2011 | |
| Climbed to West Summit from Klein Matternhorn lift. Non-technical walk-up in snow. Crowded. Nice summit though and descent via ridge towards the East was nice as well. | |

| msihl | Breithorn west summit via normal route Date Climbed: Aug 3, 2011 | |
| Two day solo trip from Zermatt (Haus Steinnelke) via Furi, Furgg, Trockerner Steg, Gandegg Hütte, Rifugio del Teodulo (Teodulhütte), Testa Grigia and Breithorn West (4165 m). Weather on summit day was nice at first (6.15 am) but then became overcast/cloudy with fog and storm during the final ascent. At least not many people climbed it from Klein Matterhorn due to the shitty conditions. Reached summit at 9.50 am and returned to Trockener Steg station at 12.50 pm. | |
