Fantastic stuff. Well done @Aetas You look great in in the last shot with the white shirt. Looks like the jacket has darkened meaningfully since I last saw it too.

@Giles:

When I originally specced this leather, I wanted brick red.  What I got was pretty bright red.  It looks like it is mellowing to brick quite nicely….

Yes @neph93 . Depending on light conditions, the MRMF shows a brick red now.

Uh oh all you fellas got serious competition now!

Great shots @Aetas

[Aetas]

^This… My girls will love your post @RoxRocks86 …as they love your BIB post, I showed them some days before…

[RoxRocks86]

How flattering considering I’m always covered in dust and who knows what  ???

@Aetas Does that mean you’ll surprise them with a pair of their own? 

[Fadez]

Great shots [mention]Aetas [/mention] ! The revival we needed. Also really enjoy the mad red color now

[Aetas]

Thanks everyone.

Good weather this morning. We hiked to the Hohensyburg ruins and it’s nearby monument.

View of the river Ruhr… and industry locations nearby  ;).

Honhensyburg

The Edelweiss patch lived in the gunpocket during RoundI. Exchanged it with this fresh made souvenir medal.

MRMF the last days…

Walking ….

Alpacas

MRMF worn but not pictured.

[Aetas]

Jacket is located in the south of the Rhön at the moment.

We started with a hike to the mountain Sodenberg in the evening.

Down the mountain to the Franconia river Saale

Back at the car where the MRMF was waiting.

[Aetas]

Fried trout at the franconian river Saale

Another guest next to our table asked if we like the trout. He turned out to be the supplier of this fish an the owner of eleven ponds up in the Schondratal.
We arranged a meeting for the next day.

[Aetas]

Hiked up the Schondratal

Smoked char

Liked the smoked trout more

Awesome pics @Aetas spend some years of my childhood in this area… had my first days on ski in the Rhoen

Great pictures. Looks like good times. And even though I don´t eat meat of any kind, the smoked fish looks tasty

Beautiful to hear @Chap !
We started on the most southern mountain in Biosphere Reserve RHOEN.

Then we entered the midlands of RHOEN.

360* viewpoint high tower

Mate is pointing towards our first mountain … Alps are 400km far off

So we oriented north. High RHOEN

Some sommerskiliftpics of the Kreuzberg will follow soon after  8).

@daynym:

…Looks like good times…

Absolutely 

You can start to think about receiving the MRMF and where to put the sticker, I will include for participants.

[Aetas]

After three days of sleeping outdoors without a tent, I agreed to an hotel in Bad Kissingen, one of the Great Spas of Europe  ::).

In between absolute rejection of this place, I was lost in contemplation….

Madness

MRMF

[Aetas]

Last day of this trip. Hiked around the mountain Kreuzberg (900m).
Not the center of the Dark Sky Reserve Rhoen, but we expected to see some stars without rain there ….

South

Litter and meagre meadows on 900m

Sunset

Stars

Sunrise

Bed

… it definitely was a nice bed @Giles  .

Temperature went down from 19C to 10C.
There was always a small breath uphill, followed next morning by a cloud cover.
Normally I stuff the backpack into the Bivicover from MacPac, which is long enough for rough situations, but it was not necessary this time….

[Giles]

Nice bed…..
