Passend zum Wetter gibt es an diesem #Fotomontag eine düstere und doch bildgewaltige Momentaufnahme des Monte Zeda (2156m) aus unserer 3-tägigen, östlichen Durchquerung des wilden #valgrande Nationalparks im vergangenen Herbst.

Die #Trekking Tour überzeugte nicht nur wegen der Örtlichkeit (mich zog es schon 2 Male in den Park), sondern auch durch die technisch interessante Grat-Überschreitung auf dem Sentiero Bove mit tollen Ier Kletter-Passagen im teils ausgesetzten Gelände und der am dritten Tag einmaligen Sicht auf das Monte Rosa Massiv.

Ich werde definitiv wiederkommen. 🥰

Every one has a guilty pleasure in his backpack. Something that is probably not really required, but just increases joy. My wife got me a new one: proper binoculars. During hikes I love to sit on a bench and just take in the landscape for a longer period of time. Lately I'm focussing on a-typical features on ridges etc. Zooming in with binoculars let's me check them in more detail. It lets one dream: "has anyone ever been up there".

My colleague showed me his Nikon Prostaff P7 10x42 and was blown away by the clarity and brightness (which is easy, as I'm not a pro in these matters and everything beats 30 euro binoculars). Played with it this morning at it turns out I can now clearly see the buildings on Schynige Platte and the Faulhorn from my A1 spot on the kitchen table. This is going to be fun!

Digital Camera World · Nikon Prostaff P7 10x42 reviewA step-up from their entry-level series, the Nikon P7 10x42 binoculars are perfect for observers who regularly spot wildlife and need a lift in quality with a big jump in price.

Red is not dead !

Après avoir grimpé la montagne qui jouxte l'Hitarvatn, j'ai trouvé une piste qui relie ce lac à un autre. La route était 50% confortable (terre fine et sèche)/50% chaotique (roches, trous). À mi-chemin, fin du trajet : la piste est encore sous une épaisse couche de neige. Pour avoir roulé sur certains paquets, c'est comme de la boue : tu "pati-niques" et tu te dis que ce sera plus safe en mai.

Seul au monde. Et les paysages sont toujours aussi BEAUX. :hakase:

This photo was taken four years ago today on my very first hike, and it’s still one of my favorites.

Back then, I had zero hiking experience.
Just wanted to follow the trend and get some nice IG photos.
Wearing all the wrong clothes and shoes, I somehow made it up Yuan Zui Mountain.
What started as a one time thing for the gram… accidentally turned into my love story with the mountains.

Le lac avait fini par se décider. La décision n'avait pas été facile à prendre, mais devenir une porte des étoiles offrait infiniment plus de débouchés qu'un petit plan d'eau perdu dans la montagne.

The lake had finally made up its mind. It hadn't been an easy decision, but becoming a stargate offered infinitely more opportunities than a small body of water lost in the mountains.

*** Toutes ces étoiles, je sais pas pourquoi mais ça me donne envie d'écouter "An der schönen, blauen Donau" de Johann Strauss II. ***
