Just curious - what inspired you to be looking at this obscure little Swiss mountain?
To answer your next thought as to why I ever climbed it - we frequently stay in the area, and it is one of the peaks nearby that can be soloed in a day from Kandersteg.
Well, it started with me looking at the photos of Doldenhorn that you posted yesterday. Then I started checking out the NW Flank route you posted. I was impressed, and decided that I might like to take a climbing trip to Switzerland soon. After that, I started exploring some of the Swiss peaks pages a little, including Jungfrau (because I recognized the name), and somehow found myself at this page. Considering how unfamiliar I am with the Alps, I was impressed by the clarity of the information, making it quite easy for a foreigner to visualize what an ascent of the peak entails - hence, I voted 4 stars!
