4 Peaks Of Monte Rosa  Sucess!

We started from Klein Matterhorn and did the west peak of Breithorn. Over the next 2 days we climbed Pollux, Castor, and Ludwigshoehe before descending the Gorner Glacier to the Monte Rosa Hut. At this point I had to descend all the way to Visp to get surgery for a strange illness and we were not able to climb Dufourspitze as we had planned.

Via the half traverse  Sucess!

The half traverse is a fun alpine rock route. Don't waste your time with the normal snow slope route.

Breithorn west summit via normal route  Sucess!

Two day solo trip from Zermatt (Haus Steinnelke) via Furi, Furgg, Trockerner Steg, Gandegg Hütte, Rifugio del Teodulo (Teodulhütte), Testa Grigia and Breithorn West (4165 m). Weather on summit day was nice at first (6.15 am) but then became overcast/cloudy with fog and storm during the final ascent. At least not many people climbed it from Klein Matterhorn due to the shitty conditions. Reached summit at 9.50 am and returned to Trockener Steg station at 12.50 pm.

First Alpine 4000er!  Sucess!

Perfect condictions to use crampons. Very early in the season, so no cable car to Klein Mat. We rent a snowmobile until 3700m...great!
Was a little bit windy early...but no winds on top.
Best season start from july as the climb bureau is closed and the teleferics was in manutention after the ski season.
