freeride project 3.1

Monday, April 27th, 2009 @ 01:39 | Austria, WINTER NEWS

To ride this beautifull northwest face on Granatenkogel 3302m in the ötztaler alps we started our mission with changing weather in the afternoon to get to our camping spot at night. The weather forecast was good but when it started to snow at  night we got a little concerned about the safety situation for the climb the next day. luckily it didnt snow too much but enough to have  a great long powderrun down the face….
