When we exited the train station at Chamonix, this was our first view of the city. In the foreground is the leading edge of what we would find to be a city-wide party going on. In the distance on the right is the Planpraz gondola heading up to Planpraz. Then, just to its left is the TBD gondola heading up to the summit of Le Brevent (8,284 ft).
This is Lake Brienz, on our approach to Giessbach See, below Hotel Giessbach and Giessbach Falls.
Our intrepid explorers at the peak of Mannlichen (7,694 ft).
This was the view from John and Karen’s hotel room balcony at Hotel Lauterbrunnen. At right is the 974-foot Staubbach Falls.
