🏃‍♂️ Aletsch Halb - An extremely runnable trail ⛰️ half marathon with views on the remainders of the longest glacier in Alps. Tons of gorgeous views. Amazing spectators. Really happy with my performance. Not so much with the incredible amount of people and queuing. But overall 10/10 worth it, would recommend.

Swiss alpine glaciers are known as the “water tower of Europe,” in this recent @BBCClick TV episode, ETH Zurich researchers show how they measure snow using radar and satellite technologies.

View on a stone frozen in water. Camera zooms out and tilts and what used to look like floor is now a ceiling. A ceiling of an ice cave. Beautiful blue shapes of frozen ice are forming the ceiling. Water drips everywhere. There is a small waterfall on the left. People walking inside, taking pictures. Floor is not ice, but wet rock. Camera pans to the right to show the entrance to the cave.

Great day for a walk in the mountains of Belalp! With a stunning view on the Aletsch glacier; as long as it’s still possible.

Story in #TheGuardian today:

I walked the Alps’ largest glacier. It felt like "last-chance tourism"

A trek on the #Aletsch #glacier in Switzerland’s Bernese #Alps is dazzling, but also a stark example of the damage caused by #globalwarming
