I left the hut the other morning and there it was... frost!
Summer has reached its peak and from here on out the days are a little shorter and a little colder. Like water spiraling down the drain we are getting relentlessly sucked into winter. March and April are notable for cold morning and hot afternoons with usually stable weather. Since the glaciers start to get particularly dry (see below) and access to many areas begins to get cut off, many people wonder if this is a good time to go alpine climbing or not.
To be honest the only thing that is important is what the weather is like on the day. If the weather is good we will provide a great trip any time of year. Unfortunately we have yet to come up with a way to guarantee what the weather will do. The only thing guaranteed is that if you don’t go you will never get there! My advice is pick a time of year that works for you and go for it!
