Two views from #Wildstrubel summit exactly 1 year apart. Check out how the extreme summer of 2022 changed the crevasse situation! While it was an enjoyable walk over the #glacier in 2021, there's a labyrinth of crevasses now - the #ClimateCrisis also alters mountaineering hazards

It was an emotional moment for me yesterday up at "my" Pizol #Glacier. The final Good Bye, amidst the melancholic fog, together with 30 supporters of @KlimaschutzCH I picked up my last measurement pole (did not survive the summer of course) from a 20x20m ice patch... Farewell!



Yesterday reading and drilling new ablation stakes on Kesselwandferner with @prinzofice






Incredible footage from an helicopter of the mountain rescue of the basal detachment in Marmolada. Water lubrication at the base (or interstrata) and increased pressure in water-filled crevasses are probably the main causes for this catastrophic event
