Today was quite a day. After a 6:45 departure from the hut we ascended a steep 500 meters. The elevation chart doesn’t quite show it because we forgot to start the GPS watch until almost at the top. Thereupon followed, dare we say, a challenging and occasionally harrowing descent of just shy of 2000 m. We all have stories for you for another time. Anyhow, descend we did for quite a few hours. When we thought we were close to Zams – we could see it – it took nearly 3 more hours to get there. We turned in at the Venet Gipfelhütte at the top of a mountain in Zams.
By the way, blogging daily is turning out to be a challenge.
