This is unmarked climb to Schwalmis that makes the ridge hike between Oberbauenstock and Brisen more logical without having to go back to Schwalmis or skipping the summit altogether. SAC portal rate it as T4. First part is just a very steep grass, one should aim at the gully in the final rock band that is clearly visible from the bottom (from the bottom it looks like the rock band is split in two). Later on the ridge the path is well defined and there are no difficulties.

0:00 - start at Vorder Jochli, zig-zag through the steep grass
7:37 - gully nicely visible
9:30 - bottom of the gully, the path here starts to be a bit more pronounced
11:09 - finally on the ridge
11:50 - Schwalmis summit in sight
14:49 - the path bypass the ridge on the left
16:55 - final grassy climb to the summit (only 50m)
19:40 - last meters to the summit cross
