Last weekend (22/23. July) I was in the swiss alps with my friend Olli. We have planned to do a so called "Hochtour" - a high altitude tour to the Lagginhorn 4010m above Saas Grund in the canton of Wallis in Switzerland.
To make things a bit more interesting, we didn't take the normal route to the peak but the long and exposed south ridge. I will share with you some impressions of this nice and challenging tour:
Ascend to the Lagginjoch, where the climbing on the ridge starts
View to the so called Mischabelgruppe with it's highest point Dom 4545m (the peak in the middle). I was there last year
Olli at Lagginjoch in the first sunrays of the day
Nice rocks to climb
Coolio
