Early or late?

Is this photo shot early or late in the day, or is it just the gloomy winter atmosphere of a wintery Europe?
Anyway, nice action shot.

Re: Early or late?

Its about 10 in the morning and it was a sunny day, but you are most of the day in the shadow of the mountain. That makes this atmosphere.

Sun shining on ice is not a good thing for climbing :) Another fun action shot !

Re: Early or late?

Not the best friend while you are climbing, but the sun makes the snow melting and in the night the water freeze again, so its a friend and your enemy...

Good to hear things are going well. Will be going up to Canada this winter for Ice and Mixed routes. If you ever get a chance that is one place just full of ice routes of all sorts. I know you have a lot of ice climbing areas in Germany and around there that are hard not to leave there for the winter. Who knows maybe I can plan a climbing trip there next winter. Cheers and good luck from the Ice Man Jerry
