Route Climbed: Normal Route from Simplon Pass Date Climbed: february 2014 / march 20172014: First summit of 2014 and first summit of the tour ski season. Rather short trip from the Simplon Pass. Absolutely great views from the summit.
2017: After climbing the nearby Tochuhorn we moved on to the Spitzhornli, since it seamed to offer a better ski descent :-)
