Crag features

A splendid remote summit with three distinct ridges and a prominant subsidiary top to the west. The South Ridge is mainly snow offers the easiest route. The Northeast, between the summit and the Grossjoch, has three steep and quite difficult steps and is rarely climbed (D). The ridge linking the Main and West Summits is also not often climbed but is described here. The most important feature of the mountain is its 1200m high North Face on which there are some quite demanding ice routes.
