Really nice view!  Sucess!

Climbed up right from Col Gnifetti.
Nothing much challenging, but the view from the top makes it worth your every step. Great panorama.

A part of our trip around Monte Rosa's plateau.
Climbed in perfect weather with Igi.

Gabi, Sev and I left M. Hut at 6am... very windy, so a bit scary in the ridge up to the virgin. Then back down thorugh the Glacier de Grenz to Zermatt where we arrived at around 2pm. Beautiful views of Cervino and Lyskamm all the route.

Route Climbed: Normal from Monte Rosa Htt. Date Climbed: 28 July 2005  Sucess!

Solo trough Grenzgletscher to the summit by normal route with back pack full of food and bivack equipement. I met 2 Italians on the top, they did it from Dufour Sp. Cold wind at that day, strong sun. The rocky part is worth your every step, I found it very atractive.
