We started at Rif. Quintino Sella. Awesome icy climb on Lyskamm West and then the magnificient traverse to the East Summit. We had great conditions, otherwise it's really dangerous to do this. You have to be very concentrated during the descent from the East summit. It's very steep and in the afternoon the snow melts extremely hard. Not to be underestimited, but the most beautiful climb I've made so far!!!
