With my friends we are planning a 3 days hiking in the Schobergruppe, starting next week Thursday.
I would be grateful if someone could let me know about the local weather conditions (I've seen quite an amount of snow on the Heiligenblut webcam), and would be interested on how viable are routes from Ad. Nossberger h. to Elberfelder hütte (via Hornscharte, alternatively Klammerscharte?), if ropes, crampons are needed/recommended, or can do without?

Any information is welcome.

Thanks,
