DAY 5 TO 6
FINSTERAAR TO HOLLANDIA.


Day 5:
Finsteraarhorn Hut to Hollandia Hut (3240m).
ascent 3048m to 3240m, 4.5 hrs.

"Had a lie in, and set off at 8.30am towards the Grunhornlucke(3280m) via the Fischergletscher. A beautiful sunny day and from the col the Hollandia hut was a distant speck and below the mighty Grosser Aletschgletscher.
Had lunch on the glacier, nearby was the Konkordia hut and on to right the Jungfrau. Roped together for the long slog up the Aletschfin, going around crevasses and finally cutting steps in the steep slope to the Hollandia Hut. Welcomed with hot tea by the hut warden."

Day 6: Hollandia Hut to Abeni Flue(3962m) and Return.
ascent 3240m to 3962m, 6 hours.

"A miserable day, no views, low mist and snow showers. The path to the summit skirted around Anuchnubel and Mittaghorn, and then turned right across the glacier and ascended Abeni Flue. The views should have been brilliant with the Lauterbrunnen valley below and the Aletschhorn to the south. The snow was very heavy as we made our way back to the hut.
