A cousin and I spent a splendid July weekend hiking in the Wallis. Uphill through Ofental across Jazzilücke and Antronapass we eventually reached the Cresta Biwak. Untypical for these bivouacs, it ended up being almost crowded with 10 people overnighting there. The next morning we descending through Furggtälli taking in the breathtaking views towards the omnipresent peaks with 4'000masl and more. To end the day we did a strenous detour up Almagellerhorn (3327masl) - what a view!!! After more than 1'500 m descent we were quite tired (and happy :)).
