  1. Just got confirmation that I will be documenting and helping with some maintenance works at Breslauer Hütte, before the main season starts. This hut, built in 1882, is one of the oldest high-alpine mountain huts in the eastern Alps, and located just below Wildspitze (3768m), Tyrol's highest mountain.

    The hut belongs to the Breslau section of the Alpenverein (now based in Stuttgart) and it's their upcoming 150th anniversary next year. Aside from the repair work, for me it's a long awaited opportunity to learn firsthand more about the history of this place & people, and maybe experience sunrise/sunset at 2850 meters. I will also be attempting to restage some of the classic postcard shots from ~100 years ago, to be later developed as gold-toned Kallitypes for a similar timeless character (but sadly with much smaller glaciers in view).

  3. CW: 1️⃣2️⃣ Hüttenadventskalender

    @cycletux Ich war ja ein paar Tage vor dir auf der Hütte und stimme dir zu - recht groß, modern und deshalb nicht ganz so persönlich wie andere Berghütten. Dennoch würde ich wiederkommen. Die Lage ist schön, die Gespräche mit den zufälligen Bekanntschaften am Esstisch angenehm und witzig und der Auf- bzw. Abstieg aus dem Val de Bedretto bzw. Airolo nicht sonderlich schwierig und landschaftlich schön! 😊

    Allerdings hast du vergessen, den supersüßen und gechillten Hüttenhund zu erwähnen! 😎

  4. Still from my harddrive until my camera (hopefully) shows up in the post... Here are two photos of me in #mountainhut warden work attire. Someone once told me that #Iceland has 'a lot of #weather'.
