Ascent of the Nadelhorn



Although it is possible to take a lift the first part up to the mountain, this was not the issue on this trip, being in good shape as we were. We therefore hiked up all the way from our campsite in the valley bottom at 1500m to a bivouac at a glacier bank, ascending up 2000m on the way. It was late in the evening when finally we climbed the last bit of rock to arrive at the planned bivouac site.
