We spent a bit of time on the Hornli ridge on the Matterhorn today. The plan was to see if we could get to the hut but soon gave up and turned round due to the conditions.
It's so fucking warm here at the moment. It's half ten at night and it's above freezing at 3000m. Lots has been said about increased risks to climbers due to melting permafrost but to hear and see rock slides above glaciers in mid Jan while wearing a t-shirt and no gloves is a new experience for me. Our climate is fucked.
