According to the Universal Hejric Calendar (UHC), which is based on the calculated crescent visibility, the start of this month in the Eastern Region will be on Friday 03 January 2014 and in the Western Region will be on Thursday 02 January 2014. Kindly notice that the UHC is a pre-calculated calendar, which adopts a certain criterion to start the new Hejric month. Your country/organization might adopt different criterion to start the new Hejric month. So it is highly advised to read the UHC website before giving any judgment.

Only moderate amounts of snow and ice covered the south side of the local mountains, so that i could easily walk the 400m of height to the observation point. I was actually scouting for a good location to observe the morning crescent of 2014-01-01, which would be far more difficult.

I created a video of the crescent images i had taken:
