Hiking-Tour "Saualpe"

After having a very early flight from vcfoo-meeting in Cologne yesterday, Sunday (get-up at 4.45 / flight at 7.00), - I had a full day for another hiking-tour in our beautiful mountain-area!

Eva, a friend I met last weekend on the way down from my "Mittagskogel-Tour" has suggested to hike more on the east-end of our region - as the weather-forecast has been reporting about clouds coming from south-west!

Her plan sounded great (have never been in this part of the Alps) and so we planed a nice round.

We did two peaks ("Ladinger Spitz", 2.079 m / 6.820 ft and "Gertrusk", 2.044 m / 6.706 ft) - quite close from each other. - Quite windy up there - but beautiful! The landscape for me seemed to be quite similiar to the Scottish Highlands (have been there end of May this year!) - very soothing....

On the way down the same like last weekend: loosing track, scouting around, finding and picking mushrooms, finding right footpath again and after 5 hours reaching the final mountain-cabin - where we had a nice rest in the afternoon-sun and a good alpine supper.....
