Waiting at the hornli hut at the base of the matterhorn
My friends Richard Tutin and Dave Marsh at the hornli hut the day before we climbed the Matterhorn way back in the early 80's here is what Wikipedia has to say about the hut
The Hörnli Hut (German: Hörnlihütte) is a mountain hut located at the foot of the north-eastern ridge (Hörnli Ridge) of the Matterhorn. It is situated at 3,260 metres (10,700 ft) above sea level, a few kilometers south-west of the town of Zermatt in the canton of Valais in Switzerland. It was built by the Swiss Alpine Club in 1880. It is also known as Berghaus Matterhorn.
