16 - 22 June 2008


Simon didn't take the invitation too seriously, to hike up to one of the peaks above Leichneralm at tea time, light a bonfire at 10.00pm and hike down again in the middle of the night. Hundreds of other people, however, mobilised and the mountains were ablaze with beacons on every peak and every ridge in celebration of Midsummer...apart from one of the peaks above Leichneralm where there was an ominous dark spot.
