The highlight of our stay this year in Garmisch-Partenkirchen came in the form of an unconquered mountain. Unconquered to me that is - Riley had scaled it twice before and I made it halfway up last year. The first time we tried to climb this mountain together, we made it as far as the grassy...

So naturally, we checked in to our little apartment we'd be calling home for the next five days, and headed out on an evening... Continue Reading →
