A Lunar Landscape

Looking back over the landscape as we descended Lochnagar on Sunday. I was glad that our friend was behind us, as he provided the perfect silhouette for my photo!
An amazing image and great your friend was in the right place!

It would be a wonderful scene anyway, but adding a person puts everything into perspective. Well done.

The snow covered surface looks quite hard to walk on or perhaps not….it looks very uneven but the snow will be soft so perhaps easier.

Fabulous capture. Very atmospheric. It's like a lunar landscape

Wow it does look like lunar walk. The sun in the clouds looks so close.

I have never tramped above the snow line - do you need to take crampons and ice picks or do you know when it's safe to go without?

Magical. What a great shot!

@christinav We never go out in winter above snow level without crampons and ice axe. I've never had to use the ice axe in earnest, but the crampons have been used on several occasions. I also carry micro crampons as they can be just the trick for small icy patches and are somewhat easier to pull on and off than the full crampons! My winter rucksack weighs a ton, as I also carry an emergency shelter, survival blanket, first aid kit, head torch, goggles, back up batteries, phone charger, spare clothing, map, compass, and of course some food! I don't plan on using most of those things, but you just never know, conditions in winter can change very quickly, and we are all just a bit of luck away from a sprained ankle or some such thing. It's all part of the fun though!

@happysnaps Aw, thank you Valerie.
January 12th, 2022  
@happypat Not too bad for walking, but lots of boulders. Not at all icy, fortunately.
