Photos From Greece

Mount Olympus - Thursday 12th - Saturday 14th August 2004

These Photos are from the Friday that I hiked to the top of Mount Olympus (which consists of a number of peaks all at about 2900m).

I didn't realise that it was Friday 13th until I was signing the 'guest book' at the top.

On the way up with the peak in the background

On Scala, looking across to Mitikas (the highest peak) and the scary climb up. If you look closely at the peak behind you can see the trig point at the top (on the right).

Clarence and me on Mitikas (2918m) the highest peak in Greece.

Looking across at another peak (Mitikas is hidden behind this peak) with a refuge below in the foreground.

Showing off my shiny new poles in front of a precipitous drop.

Looking back up towards the peaks of Olympus with the Glacier I traversed on the Right (it looked bigger close up - honest).
