Krkonose #3: Harrachov to Horni Misecky
Unexpectedly great snow for a semi continuous climb up from 700m to Visecka Bouda at 1200m. Brief stop for a coffee before real Scottish mountain weather conditions set in for the further climb to the Polish border to see the great view that wasn't. Then ground out a long traverse in almost white out to a late lunch stop at Vrbatova Bouda. Then it all cleared to great Czech views and in time for a superb run down through a switchback of turns to Horni Misecky. A little tired to make more than a token effort at the steep downhill pistes late on. Sun finally came out. :-)
