Ascents Jegihorn (3,206m) 25.08.2023

Back in the Saas valley for the Alpine Club (UK) aspirants meet. Went up the Jegihorn to make a start in getting acclimatised (again) and stretch the legs after a long day travelling the previous day. Had a nice surprise on the summit when Jamie Holding turned up with 2 guests. He had led the trip to Ama Dablam 5 years ago and I'd not seen him since leaving base camp! Good to catch up with him before going back down.
