A quick heads-up on a nice article from this weekend's Observer
Travel section about the Matterhorn - or more strictly speaking - the
Breithorn, by outdoors writer Ed Douglas.
The Matterhorn's northern side by Oliver Preece - OM
album
Definitely worth a read as Douglas undertakes a guided ascent of
the Breithorn - the Matterhorn's friendlier neighbour - as part of
the 150th anniversary of the founding of the Alpine Club and in the
company of climbing legends like Doug Scott and Stephen Venables.
Interesting stuff from one of the birthplaces of alpinism. Full
