    number in red (1977) on small scarp facing south, 1998 tag "1623 91 CUCC 1977"

    this used to have fixed point 1623.gps00.91 to locate it, but this seems to have been removed from the fixedpts list.

    Findability
    Coordinates
    Location
    Plateau - below Bräuning Scharte. GPS: UTM 33T 0410171 5280908; UTM 33T 0410155 5280976; UTM 33T 0410177 5280894
    Approach
    From Schwarzmoossattel, follow cairned path below the Bräuning Wall, past Top Camp (1988 on). Where this path meets the scree/snow slope from the wall, it turns right, out onto the plateau (this is the main path to Gschwandt-Alm, in frequent use).

    100m from the right turn is a snow field on the right, with the sound of falling water at its lower edge. This is the entrance to 91. The bolt is at the NE end of the rift.
