When newlyweds Luka Lindic and Ines Papert canceled their Alaska expedition this past summer because of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, they reconsidered what adventures they might find close to their home in Bavaria. The result was two first ascents of long routes the 12-pitch Wolke 7 (aka: Cloud Nine, 5.13b, 380m) on the Hinteres Feuerhorndl near Reiteralm, and in late November, a mixed alpine route on the north face of the Sagwand Spitze in Valsertal, which they named Limited in Freedom (AI6 M6, 800m).
