…the views were worth it (Mannlichen in Switzerland underneath the Eiger, the Monch and the Jungfrau):

Cloudy down in the Lauterbrunnen valley, cloudy at the top of the highest mountains but nice and sunny in between.

Carbon 25 (with a season appropriate polar dial) back in Switzerland for Christmas 🎄

Merry Christmas to all,

Jon

Epic.

I’ve spent time the last two summers at the bottom of the gondola (Wengen). Really really loved it. And attacked those trails on foot !
