Jesse Bryant Evolène Ailefroide (Ecrins) Bondo (Bregaglia) Never camped in Innerkirken but good location for the Bernese Oberland and Grimsel as Pete says. There are a lot of mid-grade bolted multi-pitch mountain routes around the Gelmer and Bachlital huts with no glaciers to cross. The weather’s dicier than southern Alps but everywhere in the Alps is pretty unsettled and unpredictable these days.
Pete Corrigan Ailfroide is particularly good for ticking the boxes… claims 350 days of sunshine per year and not that rammed apart from August. I think Bondo got buried in an enormous mud slide. Vallorcine, (top of the Chamonix valley on the Swiss border), always works for me. As does Innertkirken, near Meiringen,  in between the Bernese Oberland and the Grimsel Pass. Little village with a great campsite, on the doorstep single and multipitch cragging, some much bigger multipitch climbs, starting at F4, safe peaks and the campsite is south facing so get lots of sun unlike some of the higher alpine valleys which don’t get the sun until mid morning and lose it early evening.     The club went there about 10 years ago and only scratched the surface.

Just posting this link as a tribute to Ueli Steck. Worth watching. Completely inspirational. Very sad.
