| Very simple tour! We went to Rifigio d'Ayas so we climbed Breithorn West and Central. Nice view from there! | ||

| Dusted off the skis for the first ski season of the winter! Seems 50cm+ fell up there, but unfortunately the wind got to it before I did... conditions going up were perfectly fine. The ski down was, well... better than *walking* down anyway. Nice to be back on skis and out on such a fine afternoon. Finished off hitting kickers in the Gravity Park. | ||

| easy hike from the Klein Matterhorn cable car station. Shared the hike with thousands of others. My partner and I we brought skis - what a pleasure to descent. Perfect July snow conditions. | ||

| The weather wasn't great in Zermatt, but it was much better up on the Klein Matterhorn. I threw on my crampons and had my axe in hand and headed up to the summit. I was surprised how many guided parties were on this peak. Overall, the whole trip took about three hours round trip. Overall I think it was worth the 72 CF to take the Klein Matterhorn cable car. | ||

| Breithorn the second. The weather was most beautiful, much better than the first. The same are the fotos. It's a super-view to Matterhorn, Monte Rosa, Mt. Blanc a.o. | ||

| It was my first 4000er. The route is very easy in good weather, from Klein Matterhorn it must be even too easy. You can find more detailed description under http://zuraw.iostrow.com/mountains2004.html | ||

| Pleasant easy walk on snow, done as acclimatisation for Mont Blanc. Great views, and quite a feeling standing on top of my first 4000er! | ||

| Done as a "get to know you" climb with a new partner and for acclimatization. Fine enough time and great weather. Crowded, but not overly so. | ||

| Had great weather with two new friends, doing another "get to know you" (aka "will you two kill me if I rope together on something more serious?") hike. But I was dying on the way down... wishing I had my skis, with excellent spring snow conditions that would have made for a great ski down. We got caught in a thunderstorm that finally hit about 10min from the cablecar station. I was pulling my two partners like crazy roped together desperately trying to get out from underneath the ski lift and back to safety while lightning struck all around and hail so hard it left little blood blisters on my hands! Good fun. | ||

| Nice summit ridge, route was fairly crowded. Easy and nice to start e.g. a Monte Rosa tour. We descended over the East ridge to point 4075m. From there on, one can go further to Breithorn Mittelgipfel. Is a short but very nice ridge! | ||

| We started our Monte Rosa Traverse from Klein Matterhorn and popped to the summit of Breithorn on the way. Made the ascent really fast to get continued to Pollux. | ||

| After two failed attempts, the mountain granted me access. But it didn't come cheap. Wind's were at galeforce, and it took over two hours to reach the summit. Sadly there was absolutely no view. (more in my trip report) | ||
