Frosty

The last time I was up here (last July), it was a clear, sunny day like this. But there was a freezing, howling gale blowing across the ridge and there was still quite a lot of snow on the shaded bits of the trail, the combination of which eventually forced me to turn back long before I made it to the Hornlihutte.

This year there was no snow and virtually no wind. However, the shaded bits of the trail were covered in frost, which I think you can just about make out in this photo. No great obstacle, but it did mean that extra, extra care was required. It really wouldn’t do to twist a knee up here.
