Completed my first unguided 4000m climb in the Alps. Tamas and I set off on Friday from Nice on the 500km drive to Saas Fee. On arrival we got the last cable car to 3000m and short 1 hour hike to the Britannica hut. After a few hours sleep we awoke at 2:45 and started the hike at 3:45. The start was a steady climb on the glacier with no route finding issues.
On reaching the ridge we followed a well worn path up to the rock step. This was a long steep slog (upto 40 degrees at times). The step was snowed over and due to the congestion we climbed together on the one rope with some protection. We summited at 11:30.
Tamas made a video of the climb:
