Last snow of the season(?)
Classic view of the north-western flank of the Karwendel. Second image: The ski trail approach with parts of the beautiful, neighboring Wetterstein rising up in the background...
An evening walk in four parts...
We end up doing this hike every year in early spring, a great area to experience both spring & winter at the same time. Really needed to be outside again after a few busy weeks. Yesterday's weather provided the perfect opportunity, light & mood...

Another view of the same valley further down, showing the glacier's large main side moraine, also marking the last maximum extent during the Little Ice Age in the 1850s... It's hard to fathom just how much volume and ice has been lost in these past 175 years, not just in this valley... In places, this moraine is almost 200 meters tall and the valley 600 meters wide.

Considering it's International Year of Glaciers' Preservation (https://www.un-glaciers.org), I really need to continue working again on my photography book(let) about glaciers and surrounding landscapes in the Alps...
