#MountainMonday #Mountains

Still hard to believe, but #10YearsAgo we climbed the highest mountain of the European #Alps: #MontBlanc (4808m)

In a two-day ascent, we started from Nid d'Aigle (2365m) up the adventurous path until the Refuge du Goûter (3835m).

I did not sleep well, started at 4:00 up to the summit, in full moon, so no headlamp needed. While some climbers suffered (puking...), we could enjoy every step, even if it was very cold (but crystal-clear air).

Nonstop descent of 2500m 😎

View down from the adventurous and steep ascent to Mont Blanc. This part, the Grand Couloir (namely the grand mountain gorge) was snow-covered and therefore kept falling rocks in place.

Sunset at the new Refuge du Goûter at 3835m elevation.

Ascent to the summit of Mont Blanc (4808m) over Grande and Petite Bosse, the highest mountain of the European Alps and the European Union.

My shadow is cast on the top of Mount Blanc, in crystal-clear and very cold air. The panoramic view down to the other mountains was unbelievable.

I heard it's #MountainMonday so here's a #mountain you can see from my parents front porch at #ForkedMeadow #California. That's Nelson Mountain which is 10236 feet high and is in the #SierraNevada not far from #ShaverLake.

Along the route, we chose checkpoints where we need a certain altitude to safely continue flying towards Villadossola. Additionally, we memorized a few emergency landing spots based on satellite imagery and other maps that were in glide range along the route.

All 5 of us reached the official landing zone between Domodossola and Villadossola with a big smile! After eating gelato, we took the train back to Switzerland.

And finally: A looong glide (plus two thermals) from the Weissmies peak (4017m) down to Domodossola (240m).

That flight took a bit of planning. The direct route over Passo di Pontimia would have been shorter, but the Valle di Bognanco looks pretty unlandable. So we took the slightly longer route via Passo d'Andolla and the Valle d'Antrona.

Camping at George Lake, #KillarneyProvincialPark in the autumn was magical. It didn't matter if there was bright sunshine or mist on the lake as the fall colors were stunning. The La Cloche mountains in the background and the rocky outcrop with forests of evergreen and deciduous trees created a magical atmosphere.

Knife’s Edge Backpacking: Day 2

With very nervous excitement I traversed Knife’s Edge and summited 7,880 foot Old Snowy Mountain just after sunrise. This was my first time scrambling to the top of a mountain peak and highest mountain summit. The trails in this area are difficult if you’re a little scared of heights like me. Incredible views, so well worth it!

Old Snowy Mountain. The Pacific Crest Trail traverses Knife’s Edge before reaching the mountain. The rocky mountain has patches of snow or glaciers on the sides. The sky is glowing light orange near sunrise.

Mount Adams from near the summit of Old Snowy Mountain. The mountain rises above smoke that is drifting into the cascades. Other ridges are disappearing into the smoke below. Snow covers a lot of the mountain peak under a light blue sky.

The Pacific Crest Trail traverses multiple ridges in the Goat Rocks Wilderness. Smokey haze blures some hills in the background under a blue sky.

We had great weather, a great company, and an astonishing panorama.

Timberline Trail Backpacking: Wrap

I made it back to Timberline Lodge before sunrise, so I completed the trail in about 49 hours. Took the Mountaineer Trail up to 7,000 feet to see sunrise from above Timberline Lodge. Amazing! First time seeing the Silcox Hut, which was originally built as a warming hut for mountain climbers.

'Twas an eerie light that seemed blinding without actually lighting up the ground. 👻

Final shot of coast with the rescue shelter and the beach at low tide.

The sea still seemed to get some sunshine while the land already appeared dark and undersaturated under the clouds.

Brokeoff Mountain in #LassenNationalPark in #NorthernCalifornia. Always a treat to see on a hike around #Lassen.

From Wikipedia: Mount Tehama (also called Brokeoff Volcano or Brokeoff Mountain) is an eroded andesitic stratovolcano in the Cascade Volcanic Arc and the Cascade Range in Northern California. Part of the Lassen volcanic area, its tallest remnant, Brokeoff Mountain, is itself the second highest peak in Lassen Volcanic National Park and connects to the park's highest point, Lassen Peak. Located on the border of Tehama County and Shasta County, Brokeoff's peak is the highest point in the former.

A sky filled with white, fluffy cumulus clouds pass over a mountain scene. Patches of white snow are scattered over a dark, craggy mountain caldera. The mountain has one high peak on the left-most side, while it slopes down to a lower peak with a deep crater sits below the line of sight of a rocky ridge. An evergreen tree frames the right side of the image.
