| A nice and easy wall. The bivouac hut is often overcrowded. Sleep at the car and start early - it's more comfortable, and you only save about one and a half hours if you sleep at the hut. I brought a friend and it was his first northface. The view from the summit is beautiful. | |

| A good hike, unfortunately the clouds are some dozen feet lower than the summit. Nothing to see from the Northface wnd the other glaciers north and east of the summit. | |

| The weather was quiet good but a little bit to warm. Many people were at the face. Nice and short climb. | |

| The food at the Hochfeilerhütte was excellent. So was the beer and the "grappa"! We had a good time with Christian and Stephan, two guys from Germany we met in the hut. Our nine-year-old son Michael reached the summit too. It was a wonderful day and we had a great view! The top was crowded. A very nice summit for the whole family. | |

| Gumpie | Route Climbed: North Face Date Climbed: summer 1991 | |
| perfect conditons, we had about 7" of soft corn snow (july). It was very easy to climb, kind a stair stepping, and we even did not need a rope. Due to the perfect conditions it took us just 1hour from the last crevasse (Bergschrund) to the Hochfeiler Peak. We reached the Hochfeiler Huette for a late breakfeast at around 10:30 AM, before we returned to our car parked at the Pfitscher Joch Strasse. | |

| Lupino | Route Climbed: From Rifugio Ponte di Ghiaccio (Eisbruckhutte) Date Climbed: august 2003 | |
| Many times (may be 10) I was on the top: with my father, when I was young, with my friends, later, and with my brother and my cousin, the last time. The mountain is changed very much during the years. The easy and flat ice route from Forcella di Punta Bianca (Untere Weisszintschatrte) now in modified and the ice is strongly reduced. Anyway the view from the summit , looking at the North-face or at the mountain chain, is always wounderful. Berg Heil Paolo | |

| A nice climb from Hochfeilerhütte, no more snow or ice on the track. After summiting Hochfeiler we went on to the Hochferner. | |

| hupfi | Route Climbed: from Eisbruggjochhut via the Hochfeilerhut to the summit Date Climbed: 14. August 2000 | |
| We climed the Hochfeiler as a part of a 8 day trip from Bozen to Innsbruck. At this day we started at the Eisbruggjochhütte and climbed the lower Weißzintscharte. After crossing the glacier Gliederferner we reached the Hochfeilerhaus. 2.5 hours later we reached the summit. | ||

| Uli | Route Climbed: Northface Date Climbed: Aug. 24, 2002 | |
| I climbed it with Werner and Wolfgang. The conditions in the face were horrible. An unstable wet snow layer on partly thin ice combined with avalanches and rockfall. To cross the bergschrund we were forced to traverse 60 mts to the left - and back after. Finally the hole thing took us 14 1/2 hours; from the Pfitscherjoch Road (5 th turn) to the Hochfeiler Hut. In the morning thick fog made orientation almost impossible. | |

| because of shrinking glaciers the Hochfeiler has become a hiking mountain. No glacier gear is necessary. It was the easiest mountain of our week round trip in the Zillertal Alps. | |

| Rahel Maria Liu | Route Climbed: Hochferner/Weißspitze Northface - Traverse Hochfeiler Date Climbed: June 1, 2002 | |
| Great day with optimal conditions. My result: 1 northface with 950 hm and 3 summits: Hintere Weißspitze (3395m), Hochfernerspitze (3470m), and Hochfeiler (3509m). The firn in the northface of Hochfernerspitze/Weißspitze was so good, that we did not need any belay except 1 short vertical passage (90°) of about 4 m with hard ice. I climbed it first within 3 minutes, the second person of our group followed within 2 minutes - but our third companion did not make it even within 1,5 hours .... finally, we pulled him up - somehow with the help of a "lose roll" (??), although he weighed twice as much as I weigh ...We climbed the Baumgartner-Mayr-Route, but at the end, we did not climb the final face (about 300 hm) to Hochfernerspitze directly, but the iceface to Hintere Weißspitze. I made the track through the face while the other both men of my group were lying in the sun at the foot of the final face ... I waited for them on the top of Weißspitze for about 1 to 1,5 hours ....after a very delicate traverse on the very exposed firn ridge from Weißspitze to Hochfernerspitze (on both sides of the ridge, the faces were falling down with a steepness of 60°-80°), my both companions sat down on the summit of Hochfernerspitze and listened to the radio: the soccer game of the Soccer World Cup between Germany and Saudia- Arabia....I rather descended Hochfernerspitze immediately in order to climb Hochfeiler, which the other both did not want to climb anymore. So I did it free soloing. The descent to Hochfeilerhut happened very fast on my butt - my new favorite method of descending mountains. | |

| Did it with my friend Schol (see below). Optimal ice-conditions. We met two climbers descending the N-face (faster way to get back to their car). | |
