The Gorner glacier is the second largest glacial complex in the Alps. The view is looking west, down the valley, towards the end (or snout) of the glacier. A large line of ice eroded rock debris (medial moraine) is clearly visible in the centre of the glacier. The peaks reach over 4000 metres and the tributary glaciers are (from the left): Schwarz glacier, the Breithorn glacier-which has rereated back from the Gorner glacier and the Klein Matterhorn glacier which has also retreated back from the main Gorner glacier.
1982. Made guided climb to Swiss Alp glacier with overnight
in alpine hut with friend, Chief Mulholland. Started from
Kandersteg Int'l Scout Center, Switzerland. This peak guided
us out of the valley in the early morning. Used Canon F-1
and nFD 100mm f/4.0 Macro lens handheld.
During day two of my six-day-hike through the Texelgruppe in South Tyrol. Great landscape, with lakes right in the mountains, snow on the north faces and beautiful weather.
Shot with my Canon EOS 70D and the Canon EF-S18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM lens. Edited with Lightroom CC.
