  • My scariest climb to date. If not for the descent, it would be a wholesome alpine experience.
    We did not get the final summit due to starting late, and trying to make the last cable car down via hiking path. However, I would discourage doing that, because the path is dangerous even in the best of conditions and extends the worst parts of the climb.
    What to expect on the way up - runouts, unprotected sections, typical to alpine style.
    The recommended way down is rappeling due to the state of the hiking path.
    Consulting local climbers, the consensus is that there is better AND safer stuff to climb in the area.
    The descent is ""interesting"", "delicate", "sketchy", "bad shape", "exposed", "impossible in the wet", depending on the source.

    The nice blue lake you just see whe leaving the lift is the Ochinensee, with Doldenhorn and Blümlisalp behind (don't get fooled by the silly name, Blümlisalp is all but an easy walk).

      @@serenadevon 10 pitches up to 5b. 3 more 4-5a pitches in the summit which we didn't do. The climbing is not overly technical, but committed.
