Blue-Green-Eye:
Not very busy car park
Blue-Green-Eye:
This is where we have to get up to
Blue-Green-Eye:
Through the forest
Blue-Green-Eye:
Reiter Alpe - the goal for today
Blue-Green-Eye:
Then it's 2 hrs vertical
Blue-Green-Eye:
Lots of snow
Blue-Green-Eye:
Surely we must reach the pleau soon?
Blue-Green-Eye:
Nice to be in the sun for a bit...it was -7°C today
Blue-Green-Eye:
Oh dear...more climbing to do
Blue-Green-Eye:
Here we have reached the plateau
Blue-Green-Eye:
From now on it was up and down all the time
Blue-Green-Eye:
Very quiet up here
Blue-Green-Eye:
Reiter Alpe plateau
Blue-Green-Eye:
Our goal was the Traunsteiner hut
Blue-Green-Eye:
But we just got too cold - notice my frozen eyebrows and lashes here
Blue-Green-Eye:
The path was endless, and the snow too deep for us
Blue-Green-Eye:
Here we had a quick lunch and then turned around
Blue-Green-Eye:
The way back....wearing all our layers
Blue-Green-Eye:
I hadn't felt my feet in 3 hrs at this point
