Machloop 20-24/02/2006

Post by Vonsmalhausen »

Had a rather good week in the Machloop :P , monday and thuesday there where sunny moments, but wednesday was already much darker and thursday it was just to bad to stay up there :( came down round noon.
friday i didn't even try to go up ; it was -4° on the carpark, and wind was blowing horrible together with snow and ice, cloudbase must have been no more than 30 meters :?
never the less ; could make sum good shots that made my week dancing

this one in particular was already whorth the trip :mrgreen:

Wow, wish I could go there once. Really nice to see a Typhoon in action between the mountains. is it difficult to get there? because it's not your first time you've been there. and I guess you wouldn't go back if you cant get there easy.


good job Vonsmallhausen!

greetz, pietn

not at all :) it's just 700 km's :wink:
just get a OS (Ordnance Survey) map n° 124, and along the A487 and A470 you can find the spots where to take this kind of pics :D the spots i used are all located near "P" signs along these routes, so easy to go to, but there are others :wink:
just keep sum elementary "spotter rules" in mind (no trespassing on private ground, don't leave garbitch,...) and you can have a great time there :)
