Autumn around Wengen

Just to get you folks excited, this is how it looked on Maennlichen last Sunday.
The trees are bursting with berries. The predictions therefore, are for a long, cold, snowy winter.

The "Start Hut" Bar on Lauberhorn has even organised a start of winter season party for
15th November!
The colour of the trees has developed tremendously since this was taken 5 days ago. However, locals have commented that because it has been so dry, the colours have moved through to brown very quickly.


From my balcony, about 9am.




And especially for my friends...

Me at the top of the Moench Tuesday 27th October 09.
An amazing, fabulous day.

Many thanks to my guide Oskar Gertsch for getting me there and back safely.
