Austria 2008


I don't think it likes us! At the top of the Timmeljoch Pass messing about on the View from the Timmeljoch Pass There's something about mountains and no views when we're involved! The top of the Hangerer in the murk And, of course, once we get down the cloud clears to reveal the Hangerer, grrrr Walking into the Martin-Busch Hütte Walking into the Martin-Busch Hütte, looking back towards Vent Similaun in the distance The Mutmalspitze viewed from behind the Martin-Busch Hütte The Mutmalspitze from the Martin-Busch Hütte Saykogel and it's rocky ridge as viewed from the Kreuzspitze Similaun (far right) as viewed from the top of the Kreuzspitze Similaun and the Hintere Schwärze Ridge leading up to the Kreuzsptize, very glad to have my ice axe today as some of the snow was pretty solid. Saykogel with the Hauslabkogel and the Sayferner behind View from the top of the Kreuzspitze, looking down towards the Fluchtkogel (I think). Fluchtkogel (far left), looking northwards from the Kreuzsptize Saykogel East of Similaun, Hintere Schwärze (right) and Mutmalspitze (centre) Similaun and the Hintere Schwärze Dodgy snow patch Interesting drop and slabs Left-right, Mutmalspitze, Hintere Schwärze and Similaun Mutmalspitze Mutmalspitze as the sun starts to set Mutmalspitze as the sun starts to set Similaun Wildspitze Sayferner as viewed from the Saykogel Sayferner as viewed from the Saykogel Panorama from the top of the Saykogel Looking back to the Sayferner after descending towards the Hochjoch-Hospiz Saykogel Mountain art? very odd! Saykogel and Sayferner Baaaa! Via Ferratta with an impressive waterfall How civilised, topos at the bottom of every crag. Engelswand crag The best sport route I've climed so far, a 25m 5c+ called Tied off and safe so Mike can take a quick photo Climber on Moskito, the first 6b I've managed outside, albeit dogged! alas the crag didn't stay dry for a repeat attempt Nedersee, a fantastic lake on the way up the Nederkogel Nederkogel, it looks very close from here but it's still about 800m vertical to go from here. On top of the Nederkogel, proof I do look at a map...sometimes Looking down the Otztal valley from the top of the Nederkogel Auplatte, a deserted granite slab with interesting grading! Mike in Munich Mmmmmm, beer!
