"Got tight last night on absinthe and did knife tricks. Great success shooting the knife into the piano. The woodworms are so bad and eat hell out of all furniture that you can always claim the woodworms did it."

In snowI bivied at the alm below the Tuftlalm, saw a group of deer around sunset, and went up early in the morning via the Grüner Ups. It was snowing by the time I reached the summit.

From TuftlalmNice snowshoe hike, though the ridge walk from Uppsspitze was exciting due to a hurricane-style wind. Face half frozen! I was kind of crouching in the wind, with crampons and ice axe for security. Right after I got down a ways, the storm abated and the sun came out. Figures!

Daniel, Upsspitze and northwest ridgeNice loop from Ehrwald up to Daniel, Upsspitze and the lonely northwestern ridge to Hebertaljoch. Back to Grüne Ups and - after a cool beer at the Tuftalm, back to the car

Via Tuftlalm7/May/2006: Stopped at Upsspitze (2.332m), because of ugly snow conditions on the ridge to Daniel. Perfect weather and nobody (except of birds) on the mountain. Great views into every direction.
31/Oct/2009: Great trip with lots of snow below Grüner Ups.
