This evening I went on another trip to the Ohratalsperre. I was completely alone around the dam, but you can really enjoy it that way.
On the way home I took another trip to the Schereshütte. It was a very nice evening.

..... really suffered. Lots of bare patches, it's heartbreaking. But:

Especially around the Ohra Dam and Luisenthal there are large, connected, almost intact green forest areas, or so it seems.

By the way, I borrowed this tour, but I can't remember who from. Thank you for that, dear Komootler, if you recognize it, please let me know.
