| virginiapine | NW Ridge Date Climbed: Aug 31, 2007 | |
| Left the Binntalhuette at 5AM, returned at 1PM. Went back down the path to cross the stream via the bridge then east up the moraine to the main (though hidden from below) part of the Talligletscher to the Hohsandjoch. Climbing the whole NW Ridge adds more interest since just the summit pyramid is pretty short. Much fun, decent enough rock for a mountain. The descent via the normal route is NOT very fun - all very broken and loose, only recommended early in the season when covered in snow... | |

| From Binntalhütte, a little hazy, while bad weather war everywhere else on the Alps...! Nice view, becoming soon problematic. | ||

| Fred Spicker | Route Climbed: SSW Ridge with finish on the Normal Route Date Climbed: 25 July 2003 | |
| We started up on the SSW Ridge which is recommended in Michel Vaucher, Walliser Alpen. Die 100 schönsten Touren. After two very short scrambly pitches of about I or II, there is a long section of steep very loose rock and talus which was very tedious. The steep buttress which must be climbed to join the west ridge is composed of extremely loose rock with scree and mud covered ledges. The climbing here was so nasty that we abandoned the ridge and traversed onto the normal route. By this time my partners (wife and daughter) were trashed and bummed and started down while I went on to the summit alone and caught up with them on the way down. I DO NOT recommend the SSW Ridge. It is most certainly NOT one of the finest climbs in the Valais! | |
