Relatively easy glacier ski tour to the most popular summit of the Hollandia hut. The glacier is not too cracked and the ascent path is gradually gaining altitude. At the end, ridge is waiting between the secondary and main summits. With good visibility it is a ski tour without complications.

Túra na impozantní Mnich (Mönch) je v podstatě dlouhou hřebenovkou v mačkách a s cepínem. S rostoucí výškou roste obtížnost. S úbytkem ledovcového příkrovu roste expozice. Pokud nejste horský vůdce, nepoužívejte techniku krátkého lana. V závěrečném úseku je každá chyba nevratná. Výstup přináší fantastický zážitek se spoustou výhledů na nádherný svět ledovců.

Na vrchol Finsteraarhorn míří náročná ledovcová túra z chaty Finsteraarhornhütte. Hned od začátku túry jsou cestou velkolepé výhledy. Náročnější je překonání skalního žebra. Po ledovci do sedla Hugisattel s leteckým pohledem na východní stěnu. Zde je skidepot a dál v mačkách a s cepínem na skialpové poměry náročným terénem. Obtížnost lezení zásadně ovlivňuje množství a konzistence sněhu na skále. Náročný sjezd prudkými svahy kopíruje linii výstupu.

Piz Bernina is the only 4000m peak in the Eastern Alps. The greatest danger are the huge and numerous crevasses on the Morteratsch Glacier and the ridge to the summit. Piz Bernina sets off from Chamanna Boval or Rifugio Marco e Rosa on the plateau below the summit. Bernina is a demanding alpine challenge.

Blanc de Moming - Dôme is a beautiful but also very demanding complex ski tour. First ascent from Cabane Mountet to La Forcle saddle and then not very easy descent and then ascent along the Glacier du Besso. At the end of the glacier there is an uncomfortable border between snow and rock. Climb a rocky slope. First along a flat ridge, which is increasingly exposed. It is recommended to belay in windy weather. At the beginning of the spectacular descent along the Glacier de Moming, pay attention to the gigantic cracks. The departure line (keep left) turns from the northern to the western slope. After reaching the valley there is an easy ascent along the Glacier de Zinal back to Cabane Mountet.
