[Hide Comment] 1 star for summitting an actual alpine tower, 1 star for the position, 1 star for the awesome movement, and maybe a 1/2 star for the rock quality. Only a few bits of crispy rock here and there. Nothing that ruined the experience. Absolutely worth the visit.

Edit: next parties will want to bring a wrench to tighten bolts four and five. Sep 5, 2021
