This climb is in 2 logbooks, and on no wishlists.
Nice climb with a stunning view on sometimes very loose rock (Wettersteinkalk). I guess we confused the old and new Südostkante quiet often. There are some narrow parts, which might be difficult to climb with backpacks on.
The approach from Nesselwängle took about 1:20, the way back from the peak about 1:50.
Pitch 1 - Running belay
Pitch 2 - Running belay
Pitch 3 - Benedikt leading O/S.
Pitch 4 - Matthias leading O/S.
Pitch 5 - Benedikt leading O/S. Variant to the right: Traverse on a slab with tiny finger pockets.
Pitch 6 - Matthias leading.
Pitch 7 - Benedikt leading O/S. Lunch break afterwards.
Pitch 8 - Matthias leading. We took the left variant. Straight up would have been better, though.
Pitch 9 - Benedikt leading O/S.
Pitch 10 - Benedikt leading with rests. Slight rain made the rock slippery, while heavy fog prevented me from finding the route. Hence I used some rusty bolts of the old route and place my own protection. benedikt - AltLd dog - 02/Jun/11 with Matthias Müller
It is not obvious which is the Old & New route. Lead Pitches 6,7 & 8 while being a second on the rest. Carl Simmons - AltLd O/S - 23/Sep/09
