Normal - Martin Busch Hütte
Winter state. Due to snow conditions a little bit late climb. There was deep snow on the upper region. Somethimes I broke in snow. It was weist deep among the rocks. We missed the path. There was an exhausting ascent. 9 hours from Vent.
My first peak above 3000 m. I have climbed it on very rainy day with company of friend Ivica Buljevic and his 8 year old son Ante- "Mali planinar"! Vent-Martin Busch hutte 2 h 30 min, Martin Busch hutte-Kreuzspitze 3 h 30 min, Kreuzspitze-Vent 4 h 30 min. There was no ice, only snow fields in last 500 m belove the peak! Finaly on summit there was sunny 30 min as a reward! Boy was very fast, almost running, we were very slow!

A day hike from Vent.
Great weather and excellent views. High up there was a little bit of snow, nothing serious.
Climbed it as an acclimatisation tour. Really nice peak, relitively easy to reach, no major ice/snow fields, just a tricky one on the ridge (because of the temperatures the snow was very weak). The view on top is fantastic!

Route climbed: Normal route from Martin Busch Hut
Acclimatisation tour with guiding a group of friends. Not the best view, but nice walk
I climbed this one two times, once in 1988 and once in 1992, both times via the normal route from the Martin-Busch-Haus. A beautiful route to a significant Ötztal peak with a great view! Difficulties: none.

Remembering it wasn't a difficulty route just the end of the climbing on the ridge because of the hard wind...yes the wind was strong as I remember...but on the top...It was beautyful! It worthed!

Beautiful weather at last after a week of wind, snow and cold. Great view from top on Weisskugel, Similaun and Wildspitze...and on many others of course...
