'Pfade und Wege' / 'paths and ways' (? Or trails 🤔) #FotoVorschlag
Yes, that's a topic for me again 😉
This is from a trail that I did a couple of times already in different seasons. And this sections just offers such a cool view to the south.
The trail itself varies quite a bit in all terms - which I totally like. Well - enjoy!

Three people were found dead on Mt. Baldy on Monday,
days after a winter storm blanketed the peaks of the San Gabriel Mountains with snow.
At around 11:30 a.m., search and rescue teams responded to a request to find an injured man, 19,
who had fallen 500 feet while hiking near Devil’s Backbone,
a sharp ridge flanked by steep drops that leads to the summit,
the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department said in a news release.
A friend who had been traveli…
Well that was simply stunning, a proper winter walk.
Home now, with a cup of tea and a mince pie (no they've not all gone yet!) and we're already planning where to go the next time it snows.

As I said previously, I do, do ❤️ ridges... This was six days ago, on almost the last day of autumn (meanwhile it's all white)...

'Im Nirgendwo' 'in the nowhere'
It might look like a "normal" hiking photo. But that day I hiked into an area where I didn't see nor hear anybody for quite some hours!
Shortly after I took this photo, I reached a spot where I just stopped, looked around and - except for the trail - everything was just …
My plans to hike the Tongariro Alpine Crossing were derailed by two days of rain and high winds, so we made a plan B: the Tama lakes track, which has somewhat less exposure but still gets up over 1400m. We’re lucky we didn’t try Tongariro given how tough the conditions were at Tama lakes – driving snow and winds on the ridge. But we were rewarded with good views and improving weather on the return trip. #hiking

I realized that a lot of my AI discussions are explaining the difference between hiking a mountain and taking a lift.
If you’ve done both, you know the difference between getting to a summit view efficiently and discovering a mountain.
Apparently though, surprising amount of people literally do not see a difference and I find myself unable to explain it.
'Herbst (Typisch)' #FotoVorschlag ' Autumn (typical)
Well okay, I was struggling to decide between a couple of my #autumn #hiking photos but well, this is and stays my all-time-bes…
Just a bit of snow that I had last sunday during my hike.

So of course it's a grand day for pulling on our warmest outdoor walking gear and heading over to the Peak District.
We're experienced enough winter hikers that we know our limits: we'll be staying well away from any moor tops or anywhere that the footpaths are completely obscured by snow. But we're hoping for some glorious winter scenery in the valleys and the lower hills.

Nice, I wanted to write about that topic. And there.. Someone wrote about it already.
That's the reason why I never recorded myself walnut walking into the scene.
Even though it looks really cool,it really disturbs my hiking experience and totally turns into filming.

I made a playlist for hiking.
It has music from Peanuts, the Cranberries and Eminem.
I call it my trail mix.

Good morning!
That's when I touched snow last weekend. The Weather looks like I could do it again this weekend.

It's been a bit windy today.

Cool.
"When you are on trail, you realize that all the other people who are out there are out there for the same reasons that you are," she said.
"And maybe they might use the trail differently. So, for example, Greg is primarily a snowmobiler, but I'm mostly walking and hiking. But we both love the outdoors in the same way."

Hey friends of the #mountains - I almost didn't make it away from my couch today morning. But as you can see, I did!
I spent a couple of hours hiking into the snow. During the ascent I was happy that I left my snow shoes at home. Yet for half an hour or an hour, I really missed them when I sometimes sank in deeper than my knees.
But it was all well manageable and I regained so …

Yesterday shortly before reaching the summit. - I need warmer socks and maybe a warm inlay-sole.

Some more photos from my location scouting to the lake shore.
Obviously it was quite foggy and cold!
On location I was already pretty sure that these would be monochromes. but I struggled to really see motives at first. Luckily I went there just to take photos, not hiking.
Sometimes I just stood there for a while and was looking around to ... see whats around.

Uploaded another frost cycling clip to my Peertube.
Sorry, I don't have a lot of hiking content recently. But some calm cycling might be nice as well.

Selected a #hiking route for tomorrow.
Just reminded myself to check the avalanche status... Selected another route...
Maybe overcautios - but my route would go over a larger alpine meadow. Even though I'd go via a south flank that is mentioned with less risk - when I'm going alone, I prefer zero risk.
Finished a slow cycling loop. Result:
* Action cam chest strap is ace! More videos to come
* had the wrong gloves
* cold toes will liklely remain a problem. Even with hiking boots and neopren toe warmers ... Next attempt soon: warming inlay soles. (or Heated socks/soles ... )
Sunday: 2°C outside (felt like -1) and figured it was a good time for a hike in the woods, hills, and fields of #Bavaria on a trail I've been eyeing for a couple of years now. Muddy trails for about half the distance but easily negotiated.🚶♂️🌲
Would've liked if the walk was longer but 10.7kms felt good, especially after a 2-month break in any such activity.

The thermometer says it's 1.3° out there so obviously this is a perfect time to go out walking on t'moors.
There's a hike we've been planning to do for a while now, not far from Blackburn, and although it's chilly the weather says it'll be dry and bright so we're about to wrap up and head out to the East Lancs hills.
No time to waste as at this time of year the sun will be setting by about 4pm.

I'm just walking a bit after I was hiking a local mountain. And this is really a #silentsunday photo for me.
Winter has arrived 😊

Ahhwm almost forgot that it is #MountainMonday ! So I quickly discarded my previous idea and share another photo from Saturday's #hiking adventure.
I was a bit surprised by the chill wind at the top but I had a great day. The best is that it was also quite some training for my legs a…
My take for #silentSunday . Seen yesterday from the summit that I was #hiking to. I had to zoom in quite a bit to capture this distant scene.
Whenever I see a trailrunner passing me with his ultralight / small backpack, I'm wondering why I'm carrying that heavy gear up those mounta…
Plan C turned out to be a nice day in the mountains. But Woah was there a chill wind. Good that I was prepared.

A this photo from yesterday's location scouting could fit for #thickTrunkTuesday , right?
It's been quite a time since I went to a new location with the clear intent of location scouting. - It took me a while until I was able to "see" something as I was so much in walking/hiking-mode.
But it was a good experience to do it again.
Oh, almost forgot #silentsunday!
My last hike led me to this summit which is usually very well visited.
But given the weekday & weather, I was totally alone while I was up there. Noone around. No human made sound. Just me and nature. It felt so much like real freedom.

For today's #footpathFriday I chose this trail that I enjoyed this #autumn. I walked it to check whether I could bike it as well. -- Well, I met two bikers but it looks quite ... challenging. Well, not THIS part, but quite some other parts.
Hello Stranger?
I took this photo recently on a hike on one of my local hills when I turned around and saw a stranger walking there.
I hardly ever have people in my photos, because I don't WANT people there. But this scene was so different.
The fog was just thick enough to see the person, yet I didn't feel like the person was "near". It all just felt so distant.
