	SummitPost - Fiescherhorn -- Climbing, Hiking & Mountaineering
		Fiescherhorn is a name for a group of three mountains in the Bernese Oberland: Gross Fiescherhorn (4049m), Hinter Fiescherhorn (4025 m) and Ochs (3900 m).
		Fiescherhorn is a name derived by the small town of named Fiesch (from latin: vicus = town).
		From the Konkordia hut (2850m) climb the Ewigschneefeld to the point where you are below the saddle between Gross and Hinter Fiescherhorn.

		This one's more focusing on the high mountain eye candy and the uphill battle as we were too pooped on the way down to stop for many photos.
		Fiescherhorn is one of the Bernese Oberland 4000m peaks in the heart of Switzerland.
		We had intended to do the Monch and the Jungfrau the next two days but the hurricane force winds and white out conditions magically parted for one day and one day only.

		Glaciochemical studies at midlatitudes promise to contribute significantly to the understanding of the atmospheric cycling of species with short atmospheric lifetimes.
		It covers the time period 1946-1988 and shows a high net accumulation of water of 1.4 m per year allowing for the reconstruction of high-resolution environmental records.
		Chemical composition was dominated by secondary aerosol constituents as well as mineral dust components, characterizing the Fiescherhorn site as a relatively unpolluted continental site.

		Round the final bend for an excellent view of the glacial cirque, with ice-clad Fiescherhorn rising above.
		The gradient eases for the final few minutes to the hut and restaurant, around an hour's walk from the trailhead.

		Focus is given here on 137Cs and 60Co, both particle reactive metals, with half-lifes of 30 and 5.3 years, respectively.
		The deposition of these radionuclides as a function of time (flux rates) can be evaluated in archives of relatively undisturbed systems like Lake Brienz or the Fiescherhorn glacier.
		Ideal systems are those with a continuous radionuclide flux and a known relationship between deposition and source area.

	A method to reconstruct past accumulation rates in alpine firn regions: A study on Fiescherhorn, Swiss Alps
		With this information and the assumptions of steady state velocity and density fields, the correction of layer thicknesses can be determined without knowledge of the ice density profile and thus can be applied to boreholes without ice cores.
		The method is applied to a borehole on Fiescherhorn, Swiss Alps, resulting in a substantially larger correction than with the simpler method of Nye (1963).

		The peak is one of the hardest ‘four-thousanders’ and apparently the hardest mountain to climb in Switzerland by its easiest route.
		To be honest, looking across from the Fiescherhorn I thought it may best wait for another year.
		It’s a long approach to the Schreckhorn Hut, with a 1500m ascent from the valley and a similar height gain on the summit climb.

	Fiescherhorn - Wikipedia, la enciclopedia libre
		El Fiescherhorn es el nombre dado a tres montañas en el macizo de los Alpes berneses en Suiza.
		Estas son el Gross Fiescherhorn (4049 m), el Hinter Fiescherhorn (4025 m) y el Ochs (3900 m).
		Las subidas al Fiescherhorn se hacen generalmente a partir de una de las tres rutas más conocidas, la primera a partir de la Obermönchjochhütte (véase Mönch), la segunda a partir de la Konkordiahütte y las tercera a partir del Finsteraarhornhütte.

		Very few data are, however, available in this direction, since long-term data of atmospheric concentrations at sites where ice cores are available are scarce.
		As an exception, long-term sulfate data from the Jungfraujoch (3580 m asl, Swiss Alps) can be related to data from near-by ice from the Fiescherhorn (Schwikowski et al., 1999a).

		Drop me a line as I'm in the area and I want to do the Monch, Jungfrau, and Fiescherhorn this season...
		I did a five day thing last year there including Finsteraarhorn and Gross Grunhorn (intended to do the Fiescherhorn, Jungfrau, and Monch but weather turned bad).

		After having made our way up the beautiful south combe of the Fieschersattel (col between the Gross and the Klein Fiescherhorn), we climb to the summit on foot.
		A splendid descent to the Finsteraarhorn Hut (3048m) now awaits us.
