Breitspitze (2196m) summit cross as well as the true summit, just a little bit to the east

The summit cross on the Breitspitze is clearly not on the highest point. There are many smaller and bigger bumps on the east ridge, and this big boulder on the right is what I determined to be the true summit. Mind you, if the cross had been up there instead of a little further west, it wouldn't be visible from down in the valley, and this wouldn't be the first time that such practical matters determine the location for the cross. At the cross, there were quite a few other hikers. But on the true summit, I was the only one. 26 July 2013.
