So went up to the hut last week with this in mind but the weather wasn't having any of it . Looks like there could be a period of good weather early next week but am without a partner. So is there anyone who has experience in longish alpine rock out there who wants to hook up ? Please get in touch cheers !

I´d love to, but don´t have time. Stick to the boulder fields on the way down and stay off the apparently easy snow slope; on the day I was there one of three students from Hamburg with whom I´d sat at the breakfast table died, he broke through and got stuck between the snow and the slab beneath it. Be careful.

Great route with a wild crux pitch! Enjoy

The hut advice was stay off the snow that runs over a stream at the foot. Hadn't realised the whole slab was an issue.

That could work if the weather plays ball  , the forecast is in constant flux at the moment .
