The chapel of Prophet Elijah on the top of Mount Kíssavos, Greece. The chapel is not built but carved underground. The only thing that is built is its roof. Photo by Vasilis Karalis.

A Wander In The Brush Caroline Marschner
“I took this photo of a juvenile Short-beaked Echidna (Tachyglossus aculeatus) at the base of Mount Ossa, Tasmania, when I was having a break from the hike. This young cutie was just wandering around, digging holes everywhere, and ignoring any human presence,” said Caroline.

The distinctive spire of Mount Pelion East on the horizon, captured by @magichourtravelscapes on the climb up Mount Ossa. Located in the heart of the Cradle Mountain - Lake St Clair National, Pelion East and Mount Ossa lie at about the halfway point of the iconic 6-day Overland Track - that's about as far from civilisation as you can get! For those daring enough to take on the Jurasssic trails of Mount Ossa - Tassie's highest peak, the magnificent views from the top are sure to leave you breathless!

Mount Ossa. Burned by the fiery gods of new film rolls.

Check out this Los Angeles based band named Mt. Ossa. I don't know these guys personally, but they deserve some exposure. Do you hear this shit?
(All images by Voreas, reproduced with permission)
Photographer Voreas captured these striking images of an abandoned building completely consumed by snow and ice after climbing Mount Ossa (also known as Kissavos) in the Thessaly region of Greece. The building, described by some Flickr users (not surprisingly) as an ice-house and by others as the ‘refuge’, is attached to a small tower structure and may have served as a scientific research station.
Alternatively, it may have simply served as a mountain base for determined climbers (if anyone knows for sure, please get in touch via the comment form below!). Either way, the striking images show an apparently long-abandoned structures consumed by snow both inside and out. (Explore the abandoned radar and research stations of the Arctic Circle.)
The mountain has also cemented its place in Greek mythology, which holds that the Aloadaes attempted to pile Mount Pelion on top of Kissavos in a bid to scale Mount Olympus, located to the north.
The most challenging climb
I believe won't be because it's a high mountain, but because of the amount of walking you have to do to get there.
Mount Ossa in Tasmania. 65km of walking to get to the base of the mountain! Wow! My dad thought it was a long walk, but I don't know how long he was thinking.
Anyway, that's why Tasmania is last on our list at the moment - it's going to be 3-4 days of straight walking - to the mountain, up the mountain, down the mountain and back to camp. That'll be a challenge!
