Off to Euroland again

[nick crisp]

Last day in Switzerland was spent doing repeats of the Grimsel, Nufenen, Furka and Susten passes, due to lack of imagination. Tbh, you really don't need anything else, they're such great roads, with fabulous scenery and plenty of good cafes.


This mountain had remained hidden on my first visit to the top of the Nufenen, but it dominates the landscape for miles around when it does reveal itself:





The Grimsel Pass road, seen from the start of the Furka Pass road:





Taken from the same spot, looking up the Furka Pass road:





And that same highest mountain from the Furka:





This shot gives an idea of how it stands head and shoulders above everything else around:





And a few more from the rest of the day:




















Short trip this time as my bank account is in danger of meltdown  :eek


Home via the Route des Cretes (Vosges mountains) from tomorrow.
