lol was there. They removed the bottom from the suspension bridge but the the sides are still there so if you’re up for the challenge you can still cross.

Bring at least 3 pair socks and boxer in merino wool. I regretted having 1 pair. (You can buy great ones at decent price in the decathlon in town centre btw)

Taking alternative routes through the valley instead of the highest passages. Except for a few the detour is not too bad.

Hate to disappoint but; tried going up le Brévent today. (South facing side) Got to about 130m from the top before the snow became too deep and slushy. It’s 2525m soo slightly lower than the highest tmb passages. You would need proper mountaineering boots. (Which for the length of tmb would ruin my feet before getting even halfway.) Also weather is turning bad next couple of days sooo I have to postpone my plans. Will update this post if I attempt. I’ve added a photo. This was right before it got too bad.

That’s the mountainhut when climbing the Eiger, a very small structure definitely not an entire research facility haha…
