Gasterntal Valley


Hiked 13 miles today into Gasterntal Valley. Amazing views, water falls, etc. Hiked through a 'glacial hanging valley' which is basically, flat farmland, way up in the valley between the peaks. It was just beautiful. Saw a bunch of cows up there, and walked by a few small hotels. The valley is evacuated by mid October until spring due to snow and avalanches. That's me on the bridge in the photo. Yes, the small speck of pink. The town way in the background is where we are staying. This was towards the beginning of the hike.
