We spent quite a time on the top just marvelling at the views, before down climbing the fixed ropes – saved an abseil.


The way down the bottom half was much more complicated when facing downwards and looking at the multiple tracks – essentially in the morning we had followed up just to the left of the ridge, but now everywhere was a complex puzzle.
Eventually we ended up back at the Hornli hut. Similar time as the day before, so we had plenty of time to wonder at the route and how rewarding it had been. Amongst the tourists coming up were Bryon and Chris, they had been on the Zinal Rothorn and the Obergabelhorn the days before and we had left before they returned. A quick catch up and to pass on the information we had learned in the last day or so, and we started off down the valley.
With money tight again, we elected to walk all the way down to the valley – in hind sight again as with last year.. it was much, much further than we expected and we should have caught the cable car, and saved our feet. However as things turned out it did not matter.
