We get ready for the descent and take a last look back to the summit. On the occasion of the 125 year anniversary of the first ascent in 1990 a statue of holy Bernhard was inaugurated who is the patron of the mountaineers. The descent will be made over the "roof" and the "fixed ropes" till the shoulder ridge at 4200 metres (13779 ft).
