A fun unexpected addition to the day, and as RGG said, it had quite the bit of exposure on the small summit scramble.

Early in the morning it was quite windy, so instead of the Lyskamm traverse, we went past it on the southern slopes. Even though we intended to descend all the way to the Monte Rosa hut, that left us with some spare time.
We decided to go up Ludwigshöhe, but because the trail passed real close to Corno Nero, Ryan and I decided to climb that one too. We left Adam, our rope and our bags on the saddle with Ludwigshöhe and headed up. Right before the summit, the ridge was corniced, and we got surprised by the enormous drop on the east side. A very airy summit!

Nice climbing, but too short to be really challenging. However, the most interesting one that day.

A part of our trip around Monte Rosa's plateau.
Climbed in perfect weather with Igi.

Short but really fun climb especially if you add in the little bit of a rocky traverse at the end to get to the statue of the Madonna.

If you catch this when there is a lot of snow on the route, it is no problem. A bit steep but likely easy to put in good steps. We were not so fortunate as the top 2/3 of the face was bomber ice. In such conditions, an ice screw or two and/or a second ice ax would be important to have along. The quality of the descent will depend on the quality of the snow/ice. We opted to rappell given how icy the upper 2/3 of the face was. There's a bolt on the summit into which you can hook a carabiner and set up a good rappel.

Schwarzhorn (Corno Nero) was a rather fun climb with little effort. Tuomas and I did the South ridge facing the Balmenhorn Bivouac. A large amount of snow this time of year made the ascent easy and fast. We unroped ourselves on top of the snow flank and simul-soloed the rocky part and the snow saddle to the top.

We then took the most freguently used route down and headed to Ludwigshöhe.
