The Alps are beautiful, especially with the sun ;-) I have done a lot of trekking, when my back still allowed it and it is lovely. You manage to feel one with the nature and forget about everything else O/\ O/\

I just love the mountains with the snow on the peaks
Thanks, Alf. More snowy peaks to come! O:V

The clouds help make for more interesting photos, though! ;-)

Thanks. The camera does most of the work on the panoramas (and often struggles with the stitching). :-)

I forgot to mention that we saw some mountain birds on this walk: Nutcracker, Ring Ouzel and Wheatear; We also saw our first Alpine Marmot of the trip. \O

They are indeed!

Here is one of their burrows. The snowy mountain in the background is the 3600-metre Doldenhorn
