Kampenwand traverse: passed everyone
A short Saturday outing. Busy, but most of it went unroped — and the 4+ wasn't as easy as it sounds.
Machine-translated from the German original. The German version is the one I actually wrote.
A short Saturday route, so it was fairly busy. According to a guide coming the other way it was actually quiet — which says something about normal Saturdays on the Kampenwand.
We passed everyone anyway, because most of it went free. Belay continuously here and you spend half the time standing still.
The 4+ then turned out, with a pack, wet rock and cold fingers, not to be as easy as the number suggests. That’s the recurring point with easy routes: the grade describes the movement, not the circumstances.
