What a great shot! We climbed this face today, on the right side. Great to come here and see it so beautifully captured...

	Voted 10/10	No we did the Fehrmann route which (I believe!) starts in the corner faintly visible on the right of the picture. Then we switched to the Preuß route for the upper 150 meters of the tower. That is out of site around a corner. Incredible mountain and place!

	Voted 10/10	You are right, the Fehrmann dihedral is visible to the far right. (I took your reference to the west face as referring to the "big shoulder" (Spallone). The Graffer route goes up the right edge of that face.) I have great memories of the Fehrmann route. One of my all-time favorites.
