"Got tight last night on absinthe and did knife tricks. Great success shooting the knife into the piano. The woodworms are so bad and eat hell out of all furniture that you can always claim the woodworms did it."

With rgg......we walked all the way up from Punta Indren - then back down to spend night in the Gnifetti Hut before traversing all the Monte Rosa tops as far as Dufourspitze over next 2 days.
Ranks alongside Breithorn and Allalinhorn as being one of the 3 easiest ways of climbing a 4000er in the Alps, but very enjoyable nonetheless.
