In the meantime, there was very little snow in Switzerland. Still a great time enjoying the sun, the food and wine, and afternoon slush.

Yeah, Switzerland is hard to beat. I was talking to my doc who had just gotten back from the French Alps. He said the snow wasn't good, and I said, who cares? You were in the French Alps. I'd eat so much I might not get any skiing in.

With thin trees and branches, looks like you don't have to worry about tree wells as much.

At the end, I had a similar oof crossing melted-refrozen-mixed "cat tracks" (snow groomer). :oops:

Took the rock skis out for the last ski of the season…



Now just have to wait for the snow to melt off and the trails to dry out for hiking season, hopefully before July!
