Glaciers and runoff, Stubai alps, Austria


day one, stubai alps south of innsbruck




first nights hut





leaving the insbrucker hut early on a freezing cold morning with ice on the rocks





Can you see the hut I am going to have lunch at?





Stubai alps with a slanting trail rising up from the right of the photo



The trail goes up these crazy rocks




The river drains to this marshy area















Can you see the hut in the middle of the photo?

Interior of Innsbruck church







Near Lech, Austria, more green but ankle still hurting so only went to one hut





German built and owned hut in Lech, Austria. Dinner and showers were great.





Marmots are hard to photograph, here are two of them.

  1. Kevin,

    Great blog about the Stubai high trail. I am planning a trip their for this Aug. and have also started a blog http://trekstubai.blogspot.com/

    I want to get it onto Google so people can find it while searching the subject (like I did for you). How did you get onto Google? People tell me it just happens and that Google found their site on its own. If so do you know how long this took for yours to be listed on google?

    Thanks. Jay
