Excerpt from Mountaineering Records That afternoon I went up to the Trübsee hut to sleep to be ready for Titlis next day, it is eight hours to the top from here, so I thought it better to divide it, and up to the Trübsee it is very steep and stony. It had been such lovely weather hitherto I never thought of rain, but all night long there was an awful thunderstorm with deluges of rain, and next morning a thick fog, so I came down again, thoroughly depressed. After that, Titlis was enveloped in clouds for two or three days, but about Tuesday it began to clear, and I fixed to try again, Hilda having announced she should like "to go along" we set off together with a guide apiece, and got very successfully to the Trübsee by daylight.
