At the end of the Saastal valley, past Saas Grund and Saas Almagel, you reach the huge Mattmark Reservoir - a popular trip is up the old mule track to Italy - the Monte Moro pass
Follow the true left bank (i e the right in the pic) of the reservoir and then up the zig-zags
Near the top you hit a snowfield
You know when you get there
You can celebrate mass
The views are spectacular - on the left the rocky Egginer and then the easiest 4,000m snow peak - the Allalinhorn - all for another day
Return by the other bank - or, if you've plenty of time, by a higher route leading above this - you'll almost certainly meet boquetin near the dam wall
