Last week we spent 4 days in the Pennine Alps. The idea had been simmering for a long time, then we quickly agreed velik nasmeh

Sleeping at Guide d'Ayas hut, second day Roccia Nera, attempt to traverse to East Breithorn didn't quite succeed due to too little "roping" (need two 50m ropes) and Pollux at the end of the day. Varied and quite demanding summit in a mix of glacier, rock climbing and short section - pulling hard on the chain, like on via ferratas velik nasmeh

Thanks nasmeh Yeah...Castor will have to wait until next time zavijanje z očmi

Pollux due to mixed terrain really isn't a piece of cake, but interestingly, from this side Castor even has a slightly higher rating. From the other - i.e. Quintino Sella hut - it's lower. Possible that in 30 years the rating or terrain has changed. Glacier is melting, a bit below the summit there's a crevasse where the world stands steeply upright. Quite possible it wasn't there then or was less pronounced.
