Day 3 of a tour in Oetztal
Went up to the Similaun Hütte in snow and fog the day before

morning: Similaun Hütte -> Similaun ski depot (3415m)-> Similaun on foot -> Similaun Hütte
afternoon: Similaun Hütte -> Hauslabjoch (stopped a bit below, where the ice-man was found) -> Similaun Hütte

Very cold, foggy and wind in the morning, then the wind dropped and clouds went away.

Very good snow, as it snowed the day before.
Glacier in perfect conditions, crevasses filled and powder on the glacier.
No problems on the ridge at then end (lots of people at the ski depot but it wasn't a problem)

See previous days: Kreuzkogel

The hut has a really nice view on the W side of Similaun with big windows in the dining room.
They forgot about the switch to summer time the next day, so everyone was waiting an hour for breakfast...

Once the weather cleared, it's a very nice route, with an easy snow ridge at the end. Very nice view.
