This is the picture of Untersberg, the snowcapped mountain that I hiked around the third week of the program in Salzburg. This is the view from the road near our hostel.
I did a snow angel shirtless at this part. This is halfway up the mountain.
The view.
This is looking up from that halfway spot to the very summit. You can just barely make out the shadow of the cross on the top.
This is a view down.
These are the Lord of the Rings Cirith Ungol steps (as I called them) leading up from the halfway point. They went up to the cliff face and continued around it, hugging the stone until a more flat portion closer to the top.
A very blurry view.
This is at the very top. It was colder, so I put on a shirt. There are some clouds below that you can see. There's also a storm blowing in, mainly from the left of the picture.
Another view from the top, overlooking the side from which the storm was coming, and also other mountains. A trail that direction led to Hitler's Eagles' nest.
Coming down the steps. We luckily made it off of the steps before the storm hit. That's Daniel and Nicola.
A view off the side as I was sitting on the steps.
Down the steps.
