I went anywayAfter being warned about this mountain by Gangolf's page I still went there...on snowboard.
Although it is always nice to stand on a summit, being surrounded by ski lifts and people is not really rewarding ;-)

Horror!Let this page be a warning to all of you who plan to go to the Samnaun / Ischgl area in summer. It is covered by ski lifts and reservoirs to hold back water for the snow guns in winter. Palinkopf even has a ski run blasted out of its west face. Met two tank trucks on top, filling the tanks of one of the three ski lifts. Don't go!
