Day 1: Long train-train-bus ride to Furkapass/Hotel Furkablick in the afternoon, lots of tents and campers directly at the road, short hike along the red-white path to the bridge across the Sidelenbach, search for the very best bivvy spot, short strolls and hanging out, great start into the weekend
Day 2: lots of people passing by in the dark, approach to the start of the Gross Furkahorn SE Ridge climbing route across the moraine and bit of uncomfortable ice (no picks, why?) of the sad Sidelengletscher, short wait, lets go, great rock, fun climbing, not many bolts, not always straightforward route finding, long, at times rather exposed, lots of people coming up towards the end, some chaos, yay, done!, quick Abseil and descent, short walk back to "our" spot, great day!
Day 3: Plan to climb at the Wandfussplatten, sunny approach, g not feeling to well, change of plan, explore end of Sidelengletscher and hike up to the Sidelenhut, admire many other climbing options, hike back down, pack up, catch bus, miss connection in Andermatt, hellish train ride back (loud, full, hot, mask,..)
