Description

Zooming in on a tiny detail of Eggishorn 5 you can see the top of the Geisshorn (3740 m, 12270 ft). A thick sheet of snow and ice covers this top and I ask myself how thick it might be. Pity I couldn't spot any walking red dots.... :) Minolta X-700 (Fuji Sensia 100, 300 mm) Thanks for your attention and your always valuable comments

Looks awesome, scary and inspiring! Depends on one's point of view! To me the second one fits, not the picture quality, but the sheer size and the height. Well done!

Another fabulous shot of this beautiful mountain peak. That massive amount of snow has to be really thick. Excellent shot. Aloha
