Ascents Lagginhorn (4,010m) 11.07.2022

I had a few days to spare before I should have been flying home (thanks to SAS I didn't and got delayed by an extra 9 days instead) and decided to go for a last visit to 4000m and hike up the Lagginhorn via the west ridge. Had expected a little more scrambling but it turned out to be just a walk. In comparison to the Weissmies south ridge this was a bit dull but a well marked, nice walk nonetheless and the views were OK! 5h 40m up and back to the Weissmies hut, then a break before walking down to the lift t Kreuzboden.
