Matterhorn peak is the one in the middle, not really looking like Matterhorn at all... We climbed up a little to the left of the arete in the middle. The top is almost 4000m (12 279 ft) high.
Me being kind of cold and probably a bit miserable due to the altitude on one of the belays, also probably dreaming of burgers on the Tioga gas mart (which to anyone who have not been there is a wierd gas station/resturant/souvernir shop east of Tioga pass). Saw tooth ridge in the background.
Finally on the top! Now we just had three hours to get down before the camping where we stored the food we did not bring (to protect it from bears) closed. We missed it with half an hour, but was lucky enough to find some employees there with no life outside the overfilled RV camp still there.
Peter hiking against Horse creek tower, which we climbed the first day. This thing we climbed on the right side, which can't really be seen on the picture.
Peter on a belay.
