Padis: Moments From January

Perhaps there is some snow left on the trees at Padis... I started with this hope to Padis at dawn on Saturday. And there was, but only on places protected from the sun, as the valley of Crișul Pietros river:

High Tatras: Late December At The Lake Poprad

 

Vlădeasa Mountains

It was expected cold but sunny weather for the weekend, with some snowfall before. I've been planning a trip for a while to Vlădeasa peak and this time I went for it. I expected more snow up there, but the snowy pines look nice anyway in the afternoon ...:

High Tatras: Winter At The Chalet At Green Lake

A good start of the year! :) The first week of January is in the administrative break, so I decided to spend a few days in High Tatras, it must be some snow there even if there's none in the lower regions. However I had to realise that even at 2000 meters there's not too much snow. My last destination was the Chalet at Green Lake. The situation was better there, as it was snowing a little during the previous days. Towards the end of the valley the landscape was getting nice:

In the evening the full moon appeared giving some lights to the mountains:

 

Bükk Mountains: Wintertime

We planned a one day trip to the Bükk Mountains for this weekend. Some snow is expected at least on higher regions. And indeed, at the end of the road to Bánkút the ground is covered by snow. It's overcast and foggy when we set off among nice snowy trees. Reaching the Zsidó-meadow the sun appears now and then in the sky:

I decide to spend the night at Felsőtárkány and go back the next day. During the night some snow has fallen again. My target is the Zsidó-meadow again touching Tar-kő. The fog is even thicker, so I can't see anything when I get to Tar-kő. However I can find some themes on the Zsidó-meadow:
