Description
This line is probably the best moderate on the wall, or at least the most obvious. This is actually a linkup that shares sections of three other, wandering lines, but when viewing the tower from the base, it appears to climb straight up along the most direct set of weaknesses. The rock is excellent, highly featured coral limestone, and the climbing is fun and engaging, getting gradually more difficult as you ascend.
Begin up the major right-facing dihedral at the toe of the tower. Stem and paddle up the easy corner, which is much cleaner than it appears, to a gray slab. Follow mega-jugs up the slab, and then continue straight up towards a shallow groove with a seam. The crux is making a few long reaches to enter the seam, which is followed fairly easily to a good stance at a ring anchor (and a summit register that is not on the summit!), a few meters below the wide crack that splits the Rabenfels capping roof.
