Description Second in the Swiss Alpine series, this is Bachalpsee above Grindelwald. It's hard to imagine that the place was warm when I hiked there about the same time last summer.

Thanks for that! (It does look like a wintry scene, despite that fact that this was taken in late June!)

Wow, this was taken this summer? That's weird, cause last year I was in Switzerland from june to july, and I went to a few mountains (near the glacier) and there was just a tiny bit of snow. It was actually my first time seeing snow, poor me At least I saw a lot of snow this year, when I went back there, in february

This is a beautiful shot! Makes me miss Switzerland so much!

It's interesting how places can change from snowy to warm and thawed in just a year, depending on the weather and how it's been! Great capture! Very pretty!

Woaw, what a view. Great picture, Gerald. Soon I will be uploading some of my mountain pictures too. We had a great time in the French Alps last week.

Exactly what I thought when I was there, especially since it looked like this almost exactly a year ago when I was hiking there: [link] So much for global warming in this place. (But, in truth, the large glaciers in the Swiss Alps are receding at a remarkable rate. I've been going to this area around Interlaken since 1974, and the changes are all too obvious.)

It was really rather cold and challenging. But you're right, it was also beautiful. And don't be jealous...just plan a trip!

Incredible capture!
It's winter down here in Australia at the moment, and it's also school holidays, so a fair amount of my friends have traveled away to the mountains for snow. Thought you'd like to know that
The colours (or lack thereof) and the contrast in this picture are amazing.
Well done!

Hi Saruto, I have always wanted to visit the mountains of Australia. (And I have visited your Blue Mts. just to the west of you -- and Jenolan Caves too.) But I want to ski in the big mountains. I think there's still time. And thanks for the kind comment.

Hello Gerald,
I've seen your latest shots.. only hard to comment on them as the new system is giving me(and some others ) a hard time trying to respond... the glitches have yet to be worked out .. anyway, your shots are lovely, and good to hear you had such a fine tour.... I too enjoyed Austria very much... did not get to go to Salzburg after all, we stayed in the area of Saalvelden- which is about 60 km from there, a very lovely area it was too

You're lucky to be a lot closer than I am to such places. But I hope to get back there from time to time. I'll be in Europe again this October.

There were a few scary moments, especially when I was alone and came across a rather new mudslide that wiped out the trail. Thanks for looking!
