north face replacement
The plan for the north wall adopted no later than Wednesday, and so Anja - the weather was predicted much too volatile - even though we're on a real summer day experienced. Franzi and I so decided to go to the Allgäu. The big Krottenkopf with his Firnrinne was our goal for Saturday, which was described as stable. Friday morning, had to postpone the report but again deteriorated, and decided after a call to the Hermann-von-Barth-hut we decided this tour. We searched for alternatives and were once again in the foothills of the Alps find. This fact is the universally known saying "There is no bad weather, only bad clothing." We took the first train to Lenggries and were greeted by drizzle. After I, as the alarm clock rang at 5.40, really had no desire to go into this wet, I was now glad to be here. We were equipped with Gore-Tex jacket and backpack rain cover. How would again Brauneck and Benedict wall and a bit further - as far as we know, however, not yet. On the way to find it raining Brauneck it correctly. On the track, this was not a problem, first on the trail was wet, slippery and dirty. Nevertheless, I enjoyed it. We were in 1.5 hours up, we had no view, the clouds hung low and we were wet, but only externally, but the whole body is damp with such a weather. Long ago I had a feeling not had, one wants to become a wimp :-)
After a first snack we went to the top and then along the ridge towards Benediktenwand. Gradually, the clouds were higher and first Tagblicke were possible. Finally it stopped raining. The road was very wet and extremely smooth, polished stones and therefore slippery. I was very happy to have been wearing my hiking boots. We passed a group in which we were not sure as it was composed. This hike was for them in any case under these conditions completely unsuitable - really fun they seemed not to have. Just before the Ostaufschwung Benediktenwand we passed another group of women who were not sure whether there would come up - after way over the heads of the shoulder part but definitely heavier. We rested at the summit, and there we met again folks, it was more going on than we had suspected. Meanwhile, it was noon now, and we were happy when we get out on time to break the sun came up.
rose strengthened from us, but soon had had enough. We chose the path towards Jachenau, there we were completely among us, but the path through the roots and the leaves very slippery. On the glass wall chart we had managed the descent beinahte, now it went short in the road, before a magnificent trail turned off to head towards Raven. He led through lush alpine meadows, easily moved in an ideal composition in complete solitude. Unfortunately, we frittered away the branch to the raven's head - the way on foot along but was still just beautiful. In addition to the Benedict wall but an unexpected subtle beauty, which offered us here. Now we wanted to continue towards Jochberg. But that did get off for now. As we planned to climb, even the sun shone, but very dark clouds moved. As it so quickly became hot and humid was, we applied a thunderstorm and we decided for a quick descent directly to Kochel. Shortly after it started to pour right on - but the storm stayed away. Now we followed the track downhill, and enjoyed every meter we lost and we brought the target closer.
