You're welcome. I hope more people will add some mountains in the Graubünden canton.

I agree it's a fine addition. Where you say that the ascent is pretty easy and then that in summer it's rated T5, these two statements don't match. T5 is already a quite demanding hike up (but a very easy climb, of course).

Thank you for your comment Vid. It's not very consistant to define T5 as an easy hike. I'm used to define everything easier than L/F (climbing grade) as easy, but that doesn't mean that T5 is an easy hike. Good to know that there are SP members wich notice this kind of inconsistent claims.

Re: Thanks for posting this page!

Yes. My point was that if a climber would read it, everything would be ok - ascent is easy. A hiker might write you back: "I went up with my daughter and grandma and it was not so easy for them. It's good that you wrote T5, but in the text you could perhaps say a bit more to whom it is easy ;)

Cheers!

Re: Thanks for posting this page!

Isn't an idea to put a regular warning at every post? Something to warn readers that pages are made by volunteers (not allways experts) and that information can be subjective.

Cheers, Jurgen
