Miraverschneidung

Climbing the Miraverschneidung (Grade 5) on Hausstein is a classic alpine experience. The route follows a striking snow-filled gully (Schneidung) up the impressive Hausstein face. While technically only grade 5, it's an alpine undertaking that demands respect. Expect exposure, potential for loose rock, and the need for sound route-finding skills. The snow conditions within the gully are crucial – too little snow can make the rock sections more challenging and loose, while too much snow can increase avalanche risk. A successful ascent requires good physical fitness, solid climbing skills, and a calm head for navigating the exposed terrain. The summit provides breathtaking panoramic views, making the effort worthwhile. Be sure to check current conditions and weather forecasts before attempting this climb, and consider hiring a local guide if you are unfamiliar with the area or alpine climbing.
