Moondance
A fascinating view from Almer Hut, up above Franz Josef Glacier. We woke up around 2am to some beautiful clear skies and the moon just rising to the East. Sitting here watching the stars twinkle, we noticed something bizarre.
Little lights floating across the mountains across the valley. Thinking that my tired eyes or my 3am Speights was playing a trick on me. After watching this for a few moments, it clicked that this was Moonlight streaming through the broken clouds, dancing on the snow.
The patches got larger and larger as the clouds dispersed, creating what looked like waves of light floating down the mountain.
