Yesterday’s April weather offered nearly everything. Sun, rain, clouds, wind. Luckily, the rain wasn’t too bad, we precautionally brought our rain jackets and took cover under some trees for 5-10 minutes. From then on, it alternated mostly between sunny and cloudy. Perfect conditions for photography.

The 16°C felt pretty cold with all the wind. Especially at the summit for a late lunch. The clouds covered the sun for almost the entire time and the wind blew hard. Being sweaty from the way up didn’t help. The sun returned as soon as we packed up.

On the way home, it drizzled just a little bit, although the clouds were really dark. A nice surprise. All in all, we had a really nice hike. As a bonus, my mate established a new train ride record low to get home, despite all the Octoberfest crap going on right now.

From my 395 photos, I only kept 40: https://lyse.isobeef.org/waldspaziergang-2024-09-28/ In 18’s upper left corner you can see a black beetle similar to what I’ve seen earlier this week. The one that rolled over its side to change directions, this one didn’t, though.

The mushroom in 35 and 36 was enormous, easily 20 centimeters in diameter. We came across a few of them along our journey.
