Re: Congratulations...

Thank you. For me, the Obergabelhorn 4063m is one of the insidiously 4000er of the Alps. More than Matterhorn. Regards.

Belay there

I hope your second had a good belay, that cornice looked a bit shakey. Great foto though.

Re: Belay there

Ok, it is not completely security conformal :-)
Somewhat riskily.

But mountaineering is risky anyway, or?

Re: Belay there

I agree with you, taking risks gets the adrenaline running, but good to see you had a safety rope anyway. Sometimes we have to take a chance to achieve something but experience often tells us how big a risk we're taking. It doesn't worry me if I have to retreat and come back another day.

Re: Belay there

You are right. In any case, security in mountain, is for me duration issue.

A beautiful summer.

Re: Oh Cyrill,

What a fantastic and full of real joy photo it is.

You loved those Alps so much, I believe you enjoy the most beautiful mountains somewhere there now.
