Hello from the Hornli Hutte!
Last night the Matterhorn got covered in snow and ice not allowing us to make a summit attempt this morning. The team slept in and enjoyed coffee and breakfast. Around 11am most of the snow melted off the lower mountain and the team went out for a training climb.
We climbed the first 800 feet of the route working in technical skills. We came back to the hut and enjoyed a large lunch and naps.
We are getting ready dinner soon, Yeah!!! Then off to bed as we are planning on a summit attempt tomorrow morning.
Here are a few pictures from today.
