If you've ever done the Jazzihorn on the Swiss-Italian border just a walk from Saas Grund you can now log it as I've added it. Odd that it wasn't alreasy listed as it's marked clearly on the map.The grade is PD-
We did it on a wet day 11 years ago. There was a loose cable on a traverse line going down. Anybody else done it?

Named by the Swiss tourist board surely?

In reply to Southern Man: Its Italian name is Pizzo Cinguino Nord. I never noticed how cool the German name was.

Of which I can say that after a few drawbacks, and with a heavy load, it was literally hand over fist . The climax was to come out on top and with some relief knowing I had pulled it off.

In reply to sbc_10: How lovely! Yes... and I see it, also, is clearly marked on the map. Perhaps the map shouldn't have been left on the floor. I suppose you've been up.
