Looking back the approach to Pollux

Looking back the approach to Pollux while climbing the lower part of the rock ridge. The horizon is given by the Breithorn plateau, to the right you can see a part of the Breithorn massive. The summit in the distance (left to the center of the picture) is Dent d'Hérens. September 2006 by Herbert

..tells a story

Great photo, Herb - A very pretty picture and really helpful route-finding, especially given your excellent description of orientation, location and horizon. Every photo should be annotated this way.

I imagine that Bivacco Rossi-Volante is the dot on the prominent snow crest running up and right from the centre of the picture? A party of four climbers can be seen on the crest above the Bivacco.
