And here are some closeups with 4 seals on rocks and 9 in the water (1st picture) and 9 seals on rocks (2nd picture). Two seals where between these two groups.

Four seals resting on rocks in the silver shing sea. Of the nine seals in the water, five can be surmised (they were clearly visible in reality). A cliff face with some vegetation to the lower right. in the middle ground are nine seals resting on rocks. Most are dark grey with white spots, but the upper rightmost one is almost white. The surrounding sea glitters.

We previously did some avalanche rescue exercises. Unfortunately, the snow and avalanche conditions prevented us from reaching our destination, and we had to return.
