Anti-mountain tour because hiking with plaster is not so tingling. Staufen spat me out last time. 😁
But it was still nice today and a cozy Sunday round with Schätzle 😊

In the end, I and the backpack were soaked, despite protective clothing. Even the cell phone had caught moisture and couldn't use it last night.
A really worthwhile tour when the weather is not so good. Especially from …
