150110 Grasgehren
neill, 18:44h
Today I picked up my new ski touring equipment (after losing everything on the way down from the Riedbergerhorn 2 weeks ago - http://neill.blogger.de/stories/2463603/ ).
The first (mini-) tour with the new skis was to rescue what I could find at Grasgehren. One ski was definitely buried far below the snow but I hoped I would find the other one with the carrying frame attached to it.
Max came with me but, as he has no touring skis, he took the lift up and then walked up to meet me.
I walked to the small hut where the mountain rescue had found me and from there searched the valleys until I found the equipment. As expected one ski is still buried so I set a waypoint with the GPS so that I can go back and look in spring.

The snow was wet and slushy but my new skis worked perfectly going back down. I tied the ski to the carrying frame and put that on Sherpa Max's back so that he could ski it down for me.
