Allalinhorn, 4027m...in search of the good snow in the four thousand! pril, 6th 2011

On Wednesday we decided to leave Britanniahut. We were going to try our second 4000m and we expected snow to be funnier in north face like it has been in Fluschorn the day before.

The strict refuge policy made us to wake up at 5am as well, so we had to hang out in the entrace of Metro Alpin. We didn´t wanna go up along the ski pistes, actually.

8:00 am Saas Fee Mittel Bahnof Metro Alpin.

Once the ski pistes finish, we must take care of ourselves due to the many crevasses and seracs all along the ascent. Such an alpine environment...we liked it!





Got the coll, there was just 200m left.What a great balcony!!!

Alberto and I left our stuffs 70m before the summit, on the contrary pablo carried the skis until the summit.

The scenary was gorgeous towards anywhere!!

Cervino or Matterhorn,

Liskamm.

Stralhorn and Dufour spitze.

Me on the summit looking eastwards.


As I said before, Pablo carried the skis until the summit to try his style out in the summit slope classified as S5.

Good style with Mischabel behind him.

Later the slope gets easier...

Enjoying the descent!



Later we took the ski pistes until Sass Fee.

Good day, maybe the best of the trip. Good view, good ascent, better snow...

That night, we slept in Brig. We had dinner in the terrace of Mac Donald at 9 in t-shirt in the middle of Valais valley...Definetely, hot days...

On Thursday we stopped in Maggiore lake on our way back to Torino.

I should start the season of lakes...
