"J'ai 18 ans, et j'ai grimpé le Matterhorn, C'était mon rêve, qui c'est maintenant réalisé."

"Carme R. Fox with guide Josef Petrig and Asun Elizalde with guide Rony Inderbinen. On July 5, 1961, two excellent guides from Zermatt achieved to accomplish the dreams of two Catalan young ladies from Barcelona. It was the beginning of the season and we could climb alone. They were true professionals who made our climb easy and most enjoyable. Unfortunately one of two friends of us who joined our climbing by themselves had a fatal accident. This is to pay homage to these extraordinary men who, 50 years now, I still remember with gratitude: my guide Josef Petrig, who died only one month later on August 9, 1961 in the Ober Gabelhorn, and Rony Inderbinen who died in 2001 in the Matterhorn. As Rony wrote us in 1961 after the death of Josef: “Only God knows why things happen”."

"I remember Richard Andenmatten with respect and admiration. He is one of nature's gentlemen."

"It was me & my wife's the greatest memory for 25 anniversary in 2009. Date : August 18.2009 time 13:10."

"Matterhorn."

"This was my first climb with Rony Inderbinen; he had been recommeded by Swiss Guide Alphons Franzen since I had recently done 5 other climbs with Alphons including Monte Rosa and Alphons was not available to me for August 26, 1982. The summit photo of me was taken by Rony on August 26, 1982."
