Sorry, the picture I posted as 2969 above is actually on the web as 2968.  2969 is a bus.

Quote from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zugspitze
The Zugspitze's exact height was a matter of debate for quite a while. Given figures ranged from 2 960 m to 2 970 m, but it is now generally accepted that the peak is 2 962 m above sea level as a result of a survey carried out by the Bavarian land survey office. The lounge at the new café is named "2962" for this reason.

Bavarians, what do you expect?  Roll Eyes

So one more and then we can get on with our lives.



Zugspitze, 2970m on a good day.

Merely corroborative detail, intended to give artistic verisimilitude to an otherwise bald and unconvincing narrative.
