Itinerary description

This Easter we decided to do the trip between Arolla and Zermatt. The first day we depart from Arolla and we overnight in the refuge Cabane de Bertol. This first part is not complicated, but the last part to arrive on the refuge or the Betrol pass is quite steep. To access on the refuge, you have some stairs.
The second day is more funny and also dangerous. First we descend around 100m on the glacier and then we continue until Tete Blanche. This summit is quite easy, you only have to take into account that you are in a glacier and there are some cracks.
The views of Matterhorn, Mont Blanc amongst other are amazing. Now, all the way dawn until Zermatt (Furi in our case). The cracks were good cover, but always pay attention. 
