The wind had got up in the night, and when we looked out, it was white, cloud was down below the hut.Back to bed, finally up around 9am, the wind still howling around, but the cloud had risen a bit, then it would drop, then up again. One of the parties that had braved the conditions, but was back, claiming navigation issues.
We only had the money for one night, so it was back to the valley. We had got the sequences wrong, sunny days in the valley and more evil up at the huts.
Back down in the valley, we discussed how to change the fortunes, and decided to give the Swiss side a try, and headed off to Saas Fee. I had "recced" the place a year before, with Bryon and Alan.
When we arrived the camp site was full, but we found a place in the garden of a guest house - not exactly Rock and Roll but it was only for one night.
