Easy Afternoon
On Saturday 17th January Yu and I drove to Sellrain to find climbable icefalls. We first looked in the main Sellrain valley in between Gries and Kühtai (Bafflfall & Ochsengarten), but the conditions were very poor at that time and, therefore, we decided to drive up to Lüsens to climb the so called Easy Afternoon icefall.
