Our Swiss heroes breaking trail most of the rest of the way.
Looking over crevasses back towards the start of our route
Knee deep on the way up means knee deep on the way down...

Moon setting at 06h00 the next morning
And the sun rising shortly thereafter on the same scene
Following the ants in front... 800m of vertical to go!

Looks like good snow down below...
