The gnarly ridges on the Zermatt side of Alphubel and Täschhorn. 8.50am, 18/08/12
The ?Croats set off down the snow slope, which is icy and quite steep at first - a little later the guide inserted an ice screw and lowered the girls from it (before removing it and more or less running down to join them, which sets the degree of difficulty in perspective). I followed but a lot slower. 9.25am, 18/08/12
The slope soon eases. 9.40am, 18/08/12
