Tatra Mountain part 1
Hi
During my short holliday in Poland I visited witch my friend Tatra Mountain.Our main target was Marmot,but first we had to climb on about 1800m above see level.Was not easy,sometimes even dangerous,because in high mountain is still a lot of snow,and carying kilograms of equipment in this conditions is not nice

Lovely wild image rarely seen here. perhaps missing a focal point or better leading line, the eye is currently lead up and out of the image by the diagonal pinnacle of rocks.

Q. for my own learning when visiting alpine regions - will marmots break their hibernation with so much snow cover? - I'd always assumed they timed their emergence with the first flush of spring grass and alpine flowers

Nice, you might get some more feedback on ESS. Nice jaggy peaks - this could be a winner in changing weather and lowlight :wink:
