The steep couloir on the NE side of the Lodner saddle

This is a cutout image of this one:

The cutout clearly shows the cornice at the top. Although it looks that way, it wasn't overhanging at all. The top 10 meters or so were steep, about 50°, then it got easier. I estimate thhat the height of the couloir in this photo is about 150 m. There is a lot more snow further down, but that's invisible behind the rocks in the foreground. 15 July 2013.
