"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."

normal route up... bad route downThe summit is easy, most of it is marked. We climbed the west side down. Not a good choice, the rock is steep and loose on the first part. You need a tent because you end up in the curciusa valley and it takes a day or so to reach the nearest town. Nice adventure though ;-)

Ski route from Spluga PassNice skitour from Berghus (2033 m). We were lucky to find this weathergap during a weekend full of snow and rain. A busy skitour, for a good reason.

Route Climbed: ski route from Spluga/Spluegen pass Date Climbed: May 29th 2004I started early (5,45 a.m.) south of Spluegen/Spluga pass at 2060 m with already enough snow for the ski. One steep slope (ski crampons necessary) and some gentle slopes lead to the main ridge west of the Lattenhorn where I met the busy route from swiss side. Behind P.3096 m I left ski in front of the steep final slope and climbed that one by foot with using an ice axe and crampons, 35 degress steepness, some rocks, a little bit exposed. I heard that somebody fell to death here one year ago. The summit is very narrow and a great viewpont, with views from Ortler to Monte Rosa. After descent I took downhill to the swiss side where snow conditions were better (harder) and had some great firn skiing. Along the pass road I walked back to my car on the italian side.
Very popular trip in spring after the opening of the Spluegen/Spluga pass road (about 50 persons climbed Tambo that day)
