"Early start for a long walk to the Rastkogel 2762m via Penken. Morning mist in the valley, we got the lift up to the 1st station and walked up to the Penken ridge,above the clouds to see good views of the surrounding peaks. From the summit of the Penken, we continued along the ridge and climbed up to the summit of the Wanglspitze 2420m, then along the ridge, by passing another peak, before climbing steeply up the Grindlscharte and along the rocky ridge to the summit of the Rastkogel. Very little snow, compared to the previous ascent a month earlier. Here the clouds built up again, but good views before it closed in." — davidlong • Sep 2, 2013
"Hot sunny day, but with threat of thunder. Went from Mayrhofen to Penken,, then up to Wanglspitze (7940ft) from here along ridge past the top of a closed ski tow, then up steeply to the Grindlscharte, then along a rocky ridge with snowfields to the final 400ft steep climb to the summit. Here the cloud began to close in and within 5 minutes of descending, the summit cone was obscured and thunder began rolling around the mountains." — davidlong • Jul 18, 2013
