M is filling our bottles before we start the toughest hike we have done so far.
Going from Kandersteg towards Selden. Easy enough...
The goal for this day: Lötschenpass!
Before we really knew what was coming up...
Lunch break...
... with the butterflies!
Apfelshorlebreak after the first bit of vertical hiking...
The view!!!
The path
Where do we go from here?
Tea break
Stones and snow. Things are getting serious now.
We came from down in the valley
This is one of the paths over the snow that we had to use
One last bit left. Here we stopped for a bread and chocolate break to increase our blood sugar levels
We had to CLIMB over these rocks!
Narrow, and at this point (tired after 6 hours of hiking with backpacks) a bit scary path.
Step by step we came higher and higher
Finally, we can see the cabin where we were going to sleep
After 7 hours of hiking we were quite happy to have reached our goal
Our room in the cabin
Next day started with gorgeous weather. Isn't this mountain cool?
Nice view. One of these snow covered mountains is the highes one in Switzerland. I don't know which one though.
This is where we came from
We started our way down on the other side of the pass
The path. Not as scary as the one the day before
"Murmeltier" in the middle of this picture!!!
