MS Strallegg on a cold and cloudy visit in the GlacierLab

On July 2, 2024, the students of Strallegg Middle School were welcomed to the Dachstein Glacier with single-digit temperatures and dense fog. Bundled up in warm clothing, the group embarked on a journey to uncover the glacier’s scientific mysteries. While summer temperatures reigned in the valley below, the famous suspension bridge leading to the Ice Palace was coated in shimmering ice crystals, creating a stark contrast to the season in the lowlands.
