continuation of Part 2

... But at breakfast ("trois heures et demi ...") followed by disillusionment: Due to the unstable weather we did not rise to the green horn but again over the glacier to Fiesch. Manure, the best height adjustment, backed by Rupert outdoor pharmacy was a waste :-(((

As previously reported, we played for blowing off steam a bit on the new Sport Climbing to the Eggishorn, which we got in about half the specified time ( Despite reaction), even though We made most extensively pictures. On top of the Eggishorn (2934m) we were able to demonstrate in person to a great view of the Aletsch glacier and again by the bad weather in the north. When we fast descent, an anonymous participant then led the famous "Rupert" role before (he could have waited two seconds, I had a photo of it). The diagnosis was to return home by the way broken ribs and the doctor he has allowed others to read this article in order to avoid even more severe pain. Whether through laughter or crying, he did not say.

During the unplanned night on the Fiescheralp we compared in the absence of a better pastime our pack sizes. Here I was able to close through my clenched trekking experience new friendships and of course was a follow not tire of stressing that I clearly 30L all-inclusive was the front, while others with up to 65L with crampons were twice as difficult to go outside. It did so not long and Dieter (55L +) departed because he planned only to Friday and then had family events. At least that was the official version. I had actually forgotten, only half and pants change something creative interpretations (each pants has two sides, and dark colors are the safest), I told him of course.

Only three of us we thought what we could do next to give up yet. So we decided spontaneously to go to Zermatt ("is just around the corner ..." according to Jürgen) and there still rapidly climbing the Breithorn-east summit (according to Jürgen "a simple IIer Hatscher is"). Jürgen has read that too many guidebooks, for there is the inside always so euphemistically. Timelines contained there seem only just served the purpose of mountain tourists torture with complete exhaustion (default just missed) and bad conscience (w away from any requirements).

Posing for the picture

Before the rise of the Italian Theodulhütte (3317m) but still had the two biggest obstacles to overcome any challenging hike are: the dangerous directions by car and the many Asian photographers. Jürgen lured me so only with the prospect that the Japanese do with any of rope on his back like autographs and pictures to present in the home of true heroes. This also became clear to me that the only clever bait was to induce me to call a bet and rope wear. Top of the climb then the supposedly great weather was at its most beautiful in the form of high winds in front dropping temperatures and millibars. Speaking of pressure: At last we have arrived then also learned two days to do without toilet. Who builds old French Stehklos in a transparent grid, below the can each interested hikers the legacy of countless visitors before him in detail? But who knows what big names have already entered here in the hut book with a difference. They wanted to see or feel but not Mount history, but they could be smell it all the more.

Eggishorn without spoiler ;-)

After the Wake (you know ...), the final proof was provided, the Swiss weather forecast is not worth anything since tile's arrest. Sun had predicted, but we had a little storm with snow and ice. I have so named because it forced us when selected down noticeably in the face and struck at me a few remaining Memories left behind. Back safe at home I wonder now whether two half-four-thousand are also a whole? But the mountains also determined next year because if they have not previously sold to the Asians. And a new, ingenious cache, which is completely gone live in the vicinity too. If I had known earlier times ...

I can speak for me personally mitholen at least, uh, take that wonderful community and collaboration, the successful practice of responsibility of all participants and the climbs, especially the abandoned, remain unforgotten positive memory be and would like to thank all with a wink and a tour report, which is intended to ensure that I do not write another "must" ;-)
