FollowIt’s a nice day, very cold but bright, and it’s time to give our ski gear a shakedown before the season gets properly started. Up at Scheidegg there are just 3 lifts running, but it’s plenty as there are so few people.
We had a potter about and caught the train home for lunch. Unfortunately the train coming up from Wengen had broken down, blocking the track, so we had to ski the last mile from Allmend.
The valley runs haven’t been prepared yet, so getting back was a bit of an adventure. Good exercise though. In all our years of coming here, this is the earliest we’ve ever skied (previous record 10th December, last year).
