The weather changed suddenly after Ludwigshohe which made it a challenge to find the way and unfortuantely no nice views.

Last peak of the day after starting at the Sella Hut, traversing over to Corno Nero, then Ludwigshohe, and finishing on the Parrot before descending to the Mantova Hut. A great day in the mountains!

After a long day climbing the Dufourspitze, we made an easy day of hiking some of the easy summits near Signalkuppe on the way to the Gnifetti Hut - lots of good photo opportunities!

From the Sella hut we went over Il Naso (4100 meter) on to the Monte Rosa trail. In good but windy conditions we traversed the Parrotspitze before reaching the Margherita hut on top Signalkuppe. Coming next morning there was no visibility and we had to cancel Zumsteinspitze and Dufourspitze and instead delicately find our way down the Grenzgletscher to the Monte Rosa hut in poor visibility. (July 27, 2000).

A great ridge run with awesome views on a clear day. Pretty airy in spots and a fall would not be nice but not much in the way of technical challenges.

Solo. Nice airy ridge. With strong wind on that day it was not so easy.

Parrotspitze was the last summit of our (Tuomas and I) Monte Rosa Traverse. After summitting Signalkuppe and Zumsteinspitze earlier the same day we took the North-East ridge to the top. The view to Italy was splendid.



We traversed the mountain to start our descent to Zermatt via Monte Rosa Hut.

The upper part of Grenzgletscher was in pretty good condition with lots of snow covering the crevasses. The glacier became terrible when we passed the Liskamm. We were very cautious and progressed slowly probing the snow. Even so both of us plunged a foot into a crevasse several times.

Tired and soaked wet we made it to Zermatt in good time.

It was a very windy day to do the Parrotspitze. We used at some parts slinges and ice screws because we were scared to be blown of the ridge. When it is not windy, the ridge should be easy. It is quite flat and not so narrow, but still not a walk in the park of course.
