Hannibal and Eldorado

Another perfect automne-like weekend. With Steffi we left Friday evening by Cämperli direction to Grimsel, as we wanted to go climbing to Eldorado. But saturday morning, when we stood up, it was cloudy, wet and cold. So we decided to go to Furka, which was actually the plan for the next day. Arrived on the Furka, we meet amazing weather, but still cold temperatures. But soon on the way up direction to Hannibal, we were getting warmer. Via the snow coverd "path" we arrived at the base of Hannibal, where we climbed the route Hanimoon 6a+. And on the top on the bench :-) we were having lunch and looking at the clouds which were coming and going. Back to the Grimsel, we found a perfect camping side and enjoyed the last shafts of sunlight. Sunday morning we walked along the Grimselsee direction to Eldorado and were astonished by the beauty of the landscape. We climbed the 16 pitch route Septumania 6a+ and were having a lot of fun :-)
