Our first triple-summit activation without snowshoes or by ski this season was very successful. This tour included two 8-point-summits and one 6-point-summit on the way down. It`s a very nice area around Wildseeloder OE/TI-416, Henne TI-641 and Lärchfilzkogel TI-662.

Today I was able to activate the next two summits with the new SOTA-gear – for me first time activations. OE/SB-173 Schwalbenwand and OE/SB-331 Pointnerberg were our goals for today.

WX today was extremely hot but we decided to walk a “little” summit called Kienalkopf, where I tested my improved gear (KX3 and Buddipole Dipole)…

Today we earned our sota activator points very hard. A nearly 14 kilometer (9 miles) walk took us over three summits in the area of Saalfelden-Leogang. In about 8 hours of total time we left 2.000 meters of altitude difference behind us on our snowshoes…

Today Sota was special – it was in some kind electrifying – but more on this later. We started so early that we were sitting in the cable car before it actually starts – because the weather forecast said snow/rain at noontime -soon we reached the top.

Today another three summits were activated by SNL Franz and ATN Tom (by ski) – Hochalmspitze, Reiterkogel and Bernkogel.
