NW ridge over Stelli solo
Climbed the NW ridge solo from the Mattmark reservoir over the Stelli and continued the ridge all the way to the Jazzihorn and over the Jazzilücke and back down to the Mattmark.

NW ridge over Stelli
Slept below the Stelli pass behind a huge boulder. Next day climbed the ridge and descended via the Nollen Glacier. No other people on the mountain.
Nice views from the summit!

Climbed from Mattmark side alone after all my friends had gone home last year. Tried to climb glacier, but got too snowy for soloing halfway up which was a shame. Climbed ridge which was horribly loose and not suitable for soloing! Saw an ibex, but no other humans. On return to my bag there was a big crash as some rocks I had dislodged came loose. Take care this mountain is steeper and looser than it looks from below!
Bivouac'd with some sheep on the Alp above the dam with amazng views of the 4000 m peaks and then next day walked over the pass, around the mountain and back to Sass Grund. A good and peaceful trip all in all!

Hi, nice to see that you have climb stellihorn. Do you climb it over the glacier? Not over the ridge? If you have pictures, please add them to my page ;)

Started at the Mattmark dam and hiked up to the Stellipass in less than 2 hours. Normally it is an easy walk up the snowy slopes but due to the high temperatures all the snow transformed to ice. We had to climb the flank on the upper left side and were finally forced in some very bad rock. Nevertheless made it to the summit and after a strenuous descent arrived back at the Stellipass at 2 o'clock. Then started our race down in order to avoid the daily thunderstorm in the afternoon.
We used this climb for acclematising for a tour in the Monte Rosa, we start with clouding weather but it changed and it was a very nice climb. I did it with five friends.
