In reply to Removed Userherblai:
Ah the eternal Hornli ridge issue. Been doing it myself for a few years now and still not got it. Based entirely on the excellent Moran book rather than personal experience, I intend to take (when i do get it): couple of slings, belay device, 5 quickdraws, 35m rope, + helmet etc. Will use skinny gloves with Dachstein mitts back-up.
