Mount Moench (4,107m, ca. 13,474
ft), as seen from Jungfrau Joch. The climb goes along the right hand
ridge. |
 |
The snow drifts along the ridge
make the climb pretty "interesting". In fact some snow drifts
were that light that one could see through the holes made by the ice axes
straight down to Grindelwald. On the lower right hand side you'll see
three black dots on the ridge. That's where the path comes from. In
between were some tricky climbing parts. |
 |
Also the situation on the top
isn't too comfortable. |
 |
Nevertheless, it was a great
experience ... |
 |
... and the views are nothing
short of breathtaking (Aletsch glacier) |
 |
View down to Lake Thun. The first
mountain is Mount Maennlichen and already the first one behind is the viewpoint
Schynige Platte which was the starting point of my hike two days before. |
