Via Winterlucke
10cm of snow on Winterlucke. One grass flank full attention using pick axe was sketchy as hell. Some rock passages dangerous cuase of loose rock!! Be careful on Winterlucke. Down on NE glacier which has melted away for 80%

Bonus summit on a long day
We had left at dawn at the Wiesbadener Hütte, starting a long day by traversing of the Silvrettahorn. After that we went over the Klosterpass and Winterlücke, where we had a short break. We sure needed one, because the snow on the traverse between those two saddles made it much more serious than normal.
During that break I checked our map, and noticed that the Sonntagspitze was only some 50 m higher. I couldn't resist that!
At first, from my map, I thought there was a cross on top, but there wasn't. Not even a cairn in fact, so I built one. Looking at the map again, I now saw that the cross was located on the Schwarze Wand, right next to it.
