"As an adolescent I aspired to lasting fame, I craved factual certainty, and I thirsted for a meaningful vision of human life - so I became a scientist. This is like becoming an archbishop so you can meet girls."

Normal route from the WinteregghuetteClimbed the Rinderhorn from the Winteregghuette. Long approach but due to the fantastic weather and perfect conditions (fresh snow, no ice) very enjoyable. The summitview is stunning!

North RidgePlanned was an ascend on a sunny and warm day but the winds were so strong that it knocked us down several times, the North ridge was one big ice field and we had to turn back 200 meters under the summit because of the heavy strom.

Route Climbed: North Ridge/NW FaceClimbed Wildstrubel the day before, traversed over Roter Totz and spent the night at Schwarenbach. Skied north ridge/NW face of Rinderhorn which is quite steep but a lot of fun.

Route Climbed: normal via Rindersattel Date Climbed: 07-july-2003Lots of scree, but an interesting route though ;-)
After an unusually warm month of june there was only about 10 cm of snow left on the hard ice of the final slope. Enough for me, but maybe not very funny later in the year :-(
On the way down I was greated by a wallcreper (colourful little bird) near the Rindersattel :-)
