Ablation Zone on Breithorn

11 August 2022

Jan Beutel, professor at Universität Innsbruck and UIAGM mountain guide on Twitter:

The crevasse is opening more and more on the Breithorn summit as the ablation area of 2022 steadily heads for the very top. Trick question: Is it gonna stay or go? 

In a follow up to the above tweet he writes that there’s no present danger from this. Mountaineers can see it and work around it. And there’s no exposure to existing infrastructure if the glacier breaks off.
