The Kramer... It's mine. I own it.

***Adventure Alert***
***Picture-Heavy Entry***
Garmisch-Partenkirchen from the top of The Kramer

I climbed a mountain today, what did you do?

If you're going to climb a mountain, you have to have a good breakfast:
Breakfast of Champions
Careful!
Watch Out!
They're logging.  I'm logging, their logging.
A Sleeping Tree
Always remember to stay on the path...

Don't forget to look at the little things...

If you get tired, you can sit for a moment with Jesus
A bench and Christ

Pay respect to the fallen...
Garmisch-Partenkirchen's WWII Memorial
...Maybe next time.  I'll stick to the path, thank you.

Hey, that's familiar!
The St. Martin Hutte aka The (not so) Halfway House

The higher you get, the narrower the path...

Careful of the boulders!

Remember to peek through the trees to look back at the ants.

Or if you'd prefer, you can look up the mountain... at leaves

Ahhh... the vistas...

Careful!  The path gets treacherous!

Well, now I feel like a cheater...
The bridge
Dare I?

I dare.

Hey Snow!

Up! Up! Up!

Long way down, down, down...

Oh me, oh my.  I can see the top!

Continue on, I must

The glorious other side of the mountain!

I'm so high

I... it's... there aren't words...

Me, A Mountain, and A Sleeve

We can thank a nice young college student for this last shot.  She was one of six American's that I ran into near the top.  We shared lunch together, as well as the trip back down the mountain.  The photographer is actually a fellow Austinite.  How do you like that?  I'm on a friggin mountain in the Alps, and I run into a Bowie Grad.
