With the Matterhorn so close by, the Ober Gabelhorn (4063m) is probably a bit underappreciated, so perfect for a bit of Mountain-Monday-spotlighting.

The number of people who met with mountaineering accidents in Japan reached a record high of 3,623 in 2025, National Police Agency data shows. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/06/18/japan/society/japan-mountaineering-accidents/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #japan #society #hiking #mountaineering #mountains #npa #tourism

There’s something about a sunstar over a glacier that hits me every single time. ❄️
That mix of cold air, crunching snow and this sudden burst of light feels like a tiny reward for being up here early.

Moments like this remind me why I keep coming back — they stay with you long after the day is over. ✨

"He always told his own son that if he were to climb, he’d climb as an athlete, not a guide. If Nima was going to risk it all, he would risk it for his own dreams." —Gloria Liu for National Geographic.

Climb into the world of mountaineering… https://ausgeo.co/everest 🗻

Mountaineering can take you to the top of the world and back again, and Aus Geo Adventure headed to the Aussie Alps to join an outdoor classroom that aims high – Everest high.

The climbing school is hosted by Mike Hamill, a mountaineer who has summited Everest six times and guided more than twenty 8000m expeditions.

Technically not my photo but a photo of me, but taken on a @Mudandroutes photoshoot a few years back (I do own copyright though!)

Thought this made a nice contrast to yesterday's snowy scene.

Castell y Gwynt, again. From the more usual angle. Just wish those walkers were a bit further to the left, and I'll refrain from any political comments

Same day as yesterday, looking from Y Garn towards Glyder Fawr on a moody day out.

Getting further along the range now, heading up Y Garn in the Glyderau on an epic winter day out. Still a different outing to the other shots. Just realised that it's not the favourite I wanted to share, I'll try and dig it out.
