I had exams – I needed some sweat! So, Schwarzsee, what else? Not even with an official peak name, but with a very nice “summit” cross, a quick (and sweaty) exploration tour to the “Leiterli” path up towards Pointe de Bremingard. “Some” vegetation, hehe… Continue reading ‘P. 1865′
Phew, this was a hard one for me… (Other peaks reached: Sunnighorn, Mattestand, Nüschlete, Laseberg, Solhore, Stockhorn, Chatz u Mus, Möntschelespitz, Homad) From dawn till dusk! I certainly have reactivated the muscle ache from the marathon. Anyways, the days are shorter (and my stamina smaller) and therefore we had to give up our original plan to also go over the Chrummfadeflue and climb (and abseil from!) the Nüenenflue. Well, other days will also see these projects completed, but certainly not tomorrow and probably not this year
Thanks to Beni for once again joining up and the lead! Continue reading ‘Simmeflue – Stockhorn – Gurnigel’
I decided against listing all the peaks reached that day in the title since there were a lot: Brienzer Rothorn, Schongütsch, Briefenhorn, Balmi, Tannhorn (aka “the crux”), Ällgäuhorn, Schnierenhörnli (also done as a ski tour in winter), Gummhorn (aka “the hot hell”), Blasenhubel, Augstmatthorn (aka “back in civilization”), Suggiture and Harder (citing someone from hikr.org: “you’ve got to try harder to reach harder” – true, true…). Not enough water, bloody hot weather, quick descent to Interlaken (max speed -34 hm/min, hehe) but all in all in a very acceptable time (9h with about 2.5 hours of breaks – although we almost got left behind by a 84 years-old!) as always when one is en route with Beni! Thanks for the company! Continue reading ‘Brienzergrat’
Just about 2 hours after my last exam, i was back in business: On my way home i quickly did a little detour at Olten over the Geissflue and the Ruine Frohburg – not very remote and alpine-like, but still some quite challenging steps (around T5). My “get back in shape”-project was set off
Continue reading ‘Geissflue – Ruine Frohburg’
A great day out in sheer remoteness just a few steps away from towns and houses with views to the “Holy Trinity” of the Berner Oberland, nice clear and very fresh water, a hike through it and not-so-easy-to-find paths. The Zwingherrenbogen itself is quite unique, offers views over the blooming woods and isolation. Sunshine and warm weather, with good company and sweat at least on my forehead – the exams at least for some hours seemed far, far away. Continue reading ‘Zwingherrenbogen’
