Bad Reichenhall, Berchtesgaden
Mittelstaufenrinne
One of my objectives with my touring in Austria is to start skiing steeper, narrower gullies. As I first step, I took Neil to Mittelstaufen and after a brisk skin up through the woods to the Staufenkar, we began to climb the gully towards the ridgeline. Neil decided to pause halfway and wait whilst I continued to the top on foot to be greeted by a beautiful view from the col south into Berchtesgaden. The 40 degree gully didn't prove too much of an issue and I look forward to some steeper lines to come!
