Absam SW climb

This short, very steep climb rises above Absam in Tirol. Expect 33 to 57 minutes. The hardest 500 metres average 58.5% and start 962 m in, so the worst of it lands when you are already committed. Southwest-facing: it gets the afternoon heat and clears of snow early. The nearest named summit, Großer Bettelwurf at 2,725 m, is 389 m away. At 42.0 TEP it is harder than almost every climb in the catalogue. It is graded demanding alpine hiking: exposed scrambling, where a fall would be serious.
