July 12, 2022,Taufstein/Hoherodskopf-Vogelsberg Tour

Almost perfect conditions today, sun and almost no wind on the Vogelsberg, a rare combination, of course it's going great :-)
Long-distance view was also great, the skyline of Frankfurt was easy to see, and there was also a good view over to the Taunus.
Day was more than worth it today!
