Hello everyone,
Just sharing some impressions from todays hike to Hoher Nock
http://www.sota.org.uk/Summit/OE/OO-209
Started a 7 o’clock local time from my hometown Linz, together with my colleague Alex, in dense fog that cleared up after getting closer to the pre-alp mountains in OE5.
Started in nice sunny weather although it was still cool. From about 1500 m up sections with about 10-15 cm of snow from the snowfalls 2-3 weeks ago needed to be crossed.
View southward to Warscheneck (OE/OO-006)
Near the ridge line that we followed to the summit the sun had softened the snow already and took extra endurace to continue.
After 3:25 h including breaks and adjusting our cloth layers several times finally reaching the summit.
With a great view to the Sengsengebirge traverse.
First setting up the J-pole for 2m:
