- At 4563m only 247m lower than Mont Blanc, Monte Rosa's Zumsteinspitze makes a great bad weather / bad conditions alternative. Mont Blanc is always our number 1 objective, but if conditions are so bad we really can't attempt safely, we'll still do everything we can to fill your week with as much challenging mountaineering as possible.
John you're so good at these videos!
That looks amazing. These videos are excellent and give a great insight to your trips. Hopefully I can join for one at some point in the future!
Thanks very much, hope to see you out here with us at some point.
Wonderful footage, great mountain! Thank you for sharing
Going to my first alpine course this year hope to try mont blanc in a couple of years your defo on the top of my list
I would love to climb Mont Blanc this summer, hope the COVID situation allows it! Will keep you on top on by guides list...
Thanks, hope you can make it!
I was sold at 'a bit scottish' 😅😅
I'm a scotsman . . . And early in September my brother and I climbed our first alp (Breithorn). We are used to Scottish Mountaineering in all weathers (and subsequently used to wet rock, high winds and to deep, wet snow)
We would both love to climb Mont Blanc (and are now working up to it). We think our next summer should be to Saas-fee and we should try to climb Allalinhorn, Weissmies or Lagginhorn (or possibly a combination).
I just turned 28 and have a goal to climb Mont Blanc for or before my 30th.
I should ask . . . My brother and I flew into Geneva on September 9th and climbed Breithorn on September 10th with no ill effects (I spent the whole ascent waiting for the altitude to kick in and it never did - I just noticed how thick the air was back in Zermatt when we got down).
Our guide stopped just before the summit ridge and said "if you want any food or drink, now is the time because from here on its one push to the summit" - in the time he said that I had my breath back.
Is this a good sign if we hope to do Mont Blanc sooner rather than later?
Ok . . . So that hut is just astonishing . . . Monte Rosa was literally the next massif to our east . . . I want more . . . 😅😅😅
Nicely done John !
Cheers Francis, need to get the drone up there next time, would look really good I think. Hope all good with you.
Where did you find all the information on how to climb his mountain safely?
did you figure it out
Looks like the dream, I’m going to send an email
amazing!
Yeh, altitude is not a fitness thing so far as I know.
I found Breithorn easier than my brother (he works at a desk and I work on the railways. So he is 9 to 5 in a seat . . . Im whenever till whenever on my feet for 10 hours) so I found it marginally easier than him.
But it was marginal. Altitude is altitude. All bets please!
You never know, I suppose. Perhaps we were lucky on Breithorn. Over 4000m and it was . . . Dry and cold . . . But otherwise I was fine. Hope that's a good sign of things to come!
fantastico!!!
🖤🖤

Why do you leave the hut so early?
known as "Alpine start" because that is when the snowbridge over crevasses is the strongest with the temperature having dipped below freezing overnight. This also means that alpinist should be back down at the hut off the glacier before mid noon which is the hottest part of the day and the snowbridges are the weakest.
Easy on the slagging of Scotland 😂
Sorry no offense. The battering I got from my years Scottish winter climbing scarred me psychologically.
@@MontBlancGuides all cool buddy….just having a giggle. Did the Dufourspitz in the summer. But you are right Scotland can be and often is shall we say charecterful😅😅 All the best
You had to focus your camera more on the adventure and the mountains, not on your face.
Thanks for the tip.
