back in Munich

Quite some rain this morning and I did not start until 8am. With a stop in Sindelsdorf, like Murnau, was a center of the community of the Blauer Reiter. Franz Marc, Jean-Bloé Niestlé and Heinrich Campendonk lived here from 1909 to 1914. Many famous paintings such as The Tower of Blue Horses by Marc were created in Sindelsdorf. And another one for coffee in Penzberg. Via Wolfratshausen and Pupplinger Au north to Munich.

Mountain #16 - Zugspitze

Early up (at 4am) and a preliminary message on the success of 16 c - 16 s. It rained in the morning,  the view was limited, some people turned around because they could not find the way in the fog. Zugspitzplatt to Münchner Haus was indeed a bit tricky, windy and quite a bit of snow at narrow steep places and cables to hold on to below that snow. But in the end the mountain was defeated. Back to Garmisch and Munich.

Transfer to base camp

Short transfer trip via Nesselwang, Reutte, and Plansee to Garmisch, my base camp for Everest tomorrow. 

Lake Constance and Allgäu

Via Ludwigshafen, Meersburg, Friedrichshafen, Oberstaufen, Immenstadt to Wertach, first flat along Lake Constance, then quite hilly along the alps. Very hot day again.
