Glacial meltwater flowing from the Gepatschferner in the very right background to the Gepatsch Reservoir in the left background. Note the traces of the upper limit of the glacier during the Little Ice Age and the bright-coloured rock glacier between Vordere (3456 m) and Hintere (3296 m) Ölgrubenspitze in the centre of the image. The summit of Fluchtkogel (3500 m) can be seen in the very right background.
