Ines Papert repeated "Law and Order", Markus Bendler's M13 at the Diebsöfen in Austria. This is the first-ever M13 female ascent.
Ines made a spurless, and iceless, ascent of the 40m line (which overhangs for 30m) on the 9th of February. The route rates as one of Europe's hardest and had been repeated by Harald Berger in December and Mauro Bubu Bole at the start of February.
It says she did it "iceless" which makes the "M" of M13 see a bit silly doesn't it? I totally support and 'get' mixed climbing, but if there isn't any ice then its not mixed climbing.
