Giant Mountains (Czechy / Poland) 2 - 10 february 1996
Cross-country skiing with Johan Kikstra, start & finish were in Harrachov


Bivouac on the second day Waking up with lots of sun The Phoenix phusion offers lots of comfort Ooh, christmas tree o, denneboom
Johan puts wax on his skis to get more grip on the ice All alone skiing along Enjoying peanutbutter on our bread, the frontier to Poland is on the horizon A nice misty evening on the Sokolník
Frost on the tent A harsh storm keeps us from going up mount Snezka The snow is swept across the ice Johan loses his ski, which speeds into Poland An icy ski slope near Splinderova bouda
The road is frozen over but skiing is possible in the verge View into the valley to Spindleruv Mlýn The Elbe at Spindlermühle Break at the sheep shed with a nice view and harsh wind
Going up mount P&rcirc;ední Planina The frontier with Poland Penzion u grillü
The hotels of Spindl Climbing a local loipe Downhill 'skiing' from the Medvêdín From here we have a view at the entire frontier ridge, Skiing slopes of Spindl
Here is the source of the Elbe Looking back at a nice trip in the Giant Mountains
