"Got tight last night on absinthe and did knife tricks. Great success shooting the knife into the piano. The woodworms are so bad and eat hell out of all furniture that you can always claim the woodworms did it."

Beware !This route description is totally out of date. The Giglione hut
does not exist any more, the lower rocky section of the route
collapsed in 1997. The only way to reach the spur is by the
Gussfeld couloir (exposed to serac falls).

Agreed!The route has been somewhat abandoned following landslides on the SW flank.
