🌲 Für eine grüne Zukunft
Liebe BANFF Fans,
heute feiern wir in Deutschland einen sehr bedeutsamen Erholungsraum: den Wald.
Zum „Tag des Baumes“* wollen wir euch als BANFF Besucher ein großes DANKE aussprechen!
Denn vor drei Jahren haben wir als Veranstalter der BANFF-Tour in Deutschland, Österreich, der Schweiz und den Niederlanden begonnen Bäume zu pflanzen.
Gemeinsam mit unseren Partnern VAUDE und dem Deutschen Alpenverein (DAV) bekommt der Bergwald am bayerischen Spitzingsee für jedes 25te BANFF Ticket Zuwachs.
Mittlerweile konnten wir schon mehr als 2050 Tannen pflanzen.
Unser Ziel vor Ort: die klimaempfindlichen Fichtenwälder in widerstandsfähige Mischwälder zu verwandeln.
Auf unserer Website könnt ihr euch über den aktuellen
Projektstatus und unser Engagement informieren.
Darüber hinaus haben wir für euch Ideen, Tipps und Anregungen zum bewussten Umgang mit dem Rohstoff Holz gesammelt.
Schaut doch mal vorbei!

*Der heutige Tag entstammt den ersten Baumpflanzaktivitäten rund um die „Arbor Day Resolution“ des amerikanischen Politikers Julius Sterling Morton. Seit 1952 wird auch in Deutschland mit verschiedenen Maßnahmen für den Erhalt der Wälder geworben.

The Story
OK, it’s the most famous glacier in the world. You can’t expect solitude here; every fifteen minutes a busload of tourists is released in the direction of the viewing platforms. And yet the sight of the Perito Moreno Glacier in Patagonia with its 4-km wide and 60 m high escarpment has something touching, something incomprehensible about it. It is a natural spectacle that takes your breath away and that instinctively describes the relationship between man and nature. Humility and tranquil joy of existence seizes every viewer.
The Photographer
Ralf Gantzhorn was born in 1964, holds a M.S. in Geology – and has even worked as a geologist (as an independent consultant in the contamination sector). He has been climbing since 1983 and working as a photographer since 1985. As a northern German, he is always torn between the far too distant mountains and the fresh sea air, but he’s found a compromise in Scandinavia, Scotland and Patagonia (where he has now spent over three years). He enjoys organizing trips in areas where unfamiliar vistas – which haven’t already been photographed 1000 times – lure from every corner. He often experiences his images as far too static, but then is pleased with the abundance of triangles in the structure and the fantastic light.

The Story
The picture was taken on the summit of Marmolada after an ascent of the Vinatzer/Messner on the south wall. We didn’t reach the summit until 10:00 p.m. so we bivouacke (planned) there. We woke up to this riot of color …
