DeutschA rainy day
September 2nd
It rained in Pontresina all morning and much of the afternoon, with all mountains hidden in cloud. I visited the guides’ office to discuss the future. The problem now is fresh snow on open crevasses so that many approaches across glaciers are now too dangerous. Nevertheless I have provisionally booked a guide for next Monday to traverse Piz Palü and Bellavista at least; all the forecasts agree on fine weather for that day, but we’ve heard such promises before!
Night: Hotel Station, Pontresina
