Garmicsh Eibsee - Zugspitzgipfel


This shot was taken at Zugspitzipfel Ski place,The Zugspitze is the highest mountain in Germany. It is located at the Austrian border in the town of Grainau of the district of Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Bavaria. On the Austrian side is the town of Ehrwald in the district of Reutte, Tyrol. There is a cog railway (Zugspitzbahn ) leading from the tourist resort of Garmisch-Partenkirchen to the peak. There are also two cable cars that go to the peak from the base: one ascends from the German side of the mountain at the Eibsee (Eibsee Aerial Tramway), and the other ascends from Austria (Tiroler Zugspitzbahn ). The peak is regularly crowded with tourists. This picture taken at the lake side. At that time the tempreture is about -18'c. It was very cold. even i cannot take out my glove to snap the picture. It's kinda hard to handle a camera with gloves.
