Panoramic view from a small peak near Seeschartl in N direction to the Dösen valley and to Säuleck (3086 m) in the right central background. The Dösen lake with the Arthur-von-Schmid-Haus is shown in the central part of the picture. The tongue-shaped block field on the right side (uppermost part of the Dösen valley) is the Dösen rock glacier, a mixture of rock fragments and ice slowly oozing down the valley. It represents a popular object of scientific research.
