Got out of the house yesterday to do a tour up to the top of the Wank with my friend, Micheal who's going to school in Innsbruck. After waiting in the parking lot because he was stuck in the traffic from Munich we starting making our way up the skin track. The skin track begins winding it's way up to the top through thick trees on the normal hiking trail used in summer. Some parts of the skin track were a bit steep but not bad at all after I put the ski crampons on for a little extra grip on the ice. Micheal begin having problems with his right heel lift about half way up the tour but he toughed it out even though he had to put his heel lift back up every 20 steps.
After a quick meal on the top we made out way out far left of the top and begin skiing pretty deep snow down to the track that brings you all the way around the bottom of the mountain and back to the car. The snow was surprisingly good but the run was a little short for me to want to do a repeat of this tour.
