The Monte Rosa Hut is open
Recommended access from the Klein Matterhorn via Schwarztor or under Theodul Glacier. It is also possible to access from Rotenboden (ca. 50 mins on foot), then skitouring up on the Gorner Glacier to the Saaserlücke at 3,100 m (via ferrata), and ski down to the hut.
Conditions in the Monte Rosa area are currently good; the glacier is well covered in snow, and all peaks in the area have been climbed (Dufour, Nordend, Signalkuppe, Zumsteinspitze, Parrotspitze, etc.)
The descent through the Gornerli to Furi (Zermatt) is NO LONGER possible. As the snow bridges over the river in front of the gorge have already broken, the gorge can no longer be bypassed via the summer path either.
The recommended descent is via Saaser Lücke – Stockhorn Pass – Gant or via Saaser Lücke to Rotenboden.
