Let's see your off the beaten track / backcountry hiking / wild camping photos. Here are a few of mine from hiking up to Condoriri in Bolivia recently.

Do I spot another Hilleberg?

Here is my trip with my 9 year-old daughter last week. it's just up the mountain above our house in St. Moritz but at 2600m you can always find an adventure.

When we left St. Moritz the weather forecast was showing light rain at 18:30. By the time it was 17:30 it was showing heavy rain and by 18:15 we got weather alerts of severe thunder storms. Fortunately we got to our destination just in time. The Hilleberg goes up very quickly, even in a strong wind and we could get in just before the heavens opened.

The next morning with the clear air we had a wonderful sunrise followed by a swim in the high-alpine lake (13 degrees).

Yes, a Soulo, just about the most bombproof, weatherproof one man tent there is. It's never let me down.
