November 15, 2022,⛰Hinterer Goldberg 665m ➡️🏞➡️Fürstensteinsteig

Searched yesterday and found today! Many forest areas are damaged by the bark beetle and deforested areas can only bind rain to a limited extent. Good action to save the rainwater in the forest area. About 15 water basins were dredged. I've seen a lot of animal tracks. I'm curious what will happen here next year🧐
