Map of the route how we walked up to the site. As you see, we didn't walk
along the rim.

Location of the cabins on the site. The middle one we lived in (see the
wal!). The left one was for supplies. The right one was for spare parts. 1
October 1975.
|
The pole in the foreground was the antennae which kept the temperature
reader. You can see the path along which we walked up coming from the left.
The path left to the lower corner lead to the place from where the picture
was taken (near the telescope). The path to the right went to the third
cabin.13 October 1975.

Myself as a student astronomer. The windmeter was located right next to the
telescope which had a lenshood on both sides while not in use. Look at the
white paintspots which helped to find the path in darkness.13 October 1975.

Watch the face in the rock below the telescope. 6 October 1975.

The goats gather on top during the forest fire. We had to put wire around
the pole to prevent the cables from being chewed through. Some equipment of
the second telescope is lying around. 7 October 1975.
