Alps, Glaciers, and Hugos.

Today I had my Alpine and Glacial Geology Field trip to Obergurgl, Austria. I could waste a lot of your time reading about my trip so instead I'm just going to post pictures. Just know that it was one of the best experiences ever!

The gondola we took to up most of the mountain

the glacier we went to

highest point we went to

heading back down

felt like the von Trapps.. climb every mountain. Literally



glacier retreating

nerds doing nerdy things

touching a glacier.. yes Lauren I know I need a manicure.

glacier water, it was freezing

heading back down

celebratory drink when we got back to Obergurgl. It is called a Hugo, sparkling wine, mint leaves and a sugar syrup. yummmm

back on the bus to Innsbruck

My delicious dinner I had at Panini. A restaurant right across from the gold roof in Old Town.
