Alpine walks in and around Switzerland

[tonyg]

Thanks Tony,It was very different when we were last there in 03,how time flies,I prefer the Burnese Oberland,(No sheep and the cows do not get high up untill later in the season)We love to stay in Grindelwald,I remember talking to you at Kleine Scheidegg a few years ago.

My trip was in 2002.  Looking at the few digi pics this is the only one relevant to Mattmark.  A view up the valley towards Mattmark, taken from Hannig.  (No evidence of goats when I was there but not so many flowers either!)
I have enjoyed both the Valais and the Oberland although I have been to the Wengen area more often than anywhere else   Yes. I remember the meeting at Kleine Scheidegg ..... I returned there last year, staying at the station guesthouse.  Cheap and very quiet at night ... a great place to stay.

Tony, wonderful photos from your trip..... it's great to see other places in the same region so close by and so different. The high lakes are such an incredible colour and your snowmelt photos are incredible.  Thanks for showing them

so you can share the feelings and wonderful mountain scenery  

You don't need to ask me long.

Wonderful place (near you) close to  swiss - french border is Emosson Dam (Barrage d'Emosson). The way to the dam lead from Finhaut, it climb with switchbacks up. It's narrow but we can admire massif of Mont Blanc and the Valley of Rhone.

On the 1. photo summit with snow it's Mont Blanc. Next photos show sceneries of the dam.
