Kreuzspitz [top][OSM] picture finish Ötztaler 2013-08-02 3455 1560 22 Vent - Martin Busch Hütte - peak - retour car none did it in one long day, could not take a dip in the Samoasee, because sun left for some time and it was windy.

⇒ Just the pictures with the peaks.

1 The specification of the VDist is kind of unsatisfactory for several reasons:

Yet the data model is consistent in itself and I do not have a better solution.

2 HDist is the actual traveled distance both ways. I usually do a quick and dirty digitizing of the path in some digital map. Use at own risk.

altitude above see level

0m to 999m 0m to 999m
1000m to 1249m 1000m to 1249m
1250m to 1499m 1250m to 1499m
1500m to 1749m 1500m to 1749m
1750m to 1999m 1750m to 1999m
2000m to 2249m 2000m to 2249m
2250m to 2499m 2250m to 2499m
2500m to 2749m 2500m to 2749m
2750m to 3000m 2750m to 3000m
3000m up 3000m up

difference in altitude

0m - 599m "better walk" around the block, can probably done without backpack.
600m - 1099m "typical hike" in the bavarian alps, can be done by any healthy person with enough time, fine weather and a backpack with enough fluids.
1100m - 1399m "serious hike", can probably still be done by most people with the mental will to do it, even though some physical fitness and prior hiking experience is recommended. You will feel your body the next day(s), attemting such task without some preparation.
1400m - above "serious enterprise": you need a long day*, fine weather and some training.
*also considering about 3h of travel time one way from my home to the typical mountain that high

As some of the values for the difference in altitude are flawed by the use of technical means, this icon is not always revealing.

WTF is Mickey-Mouse Cartography?

Mickey-mouse-cartography is a term coined by a professor at the faculty of geomatics at the university of applied sciences in munich, by which he expressed his utter contempt with internet cartograpy. Welcome to a german instituion of higher-learning.
