Yesterday’s snow petered out at dinner time, and we all went up to the Caprice to see Bevez and Ibe. A good night out.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This morning I’m off up to M\u00e4nnlichen. It’s a beautiful day.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Pistes are crowded.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Jungfraubahn are building 2 new lifts. The first of these is already open – you can see it in the picture above. The second will open next December, and will take passengers from Grund to Eigerglescher.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In addition to the lifts a new terminal is being built, along with a new railway station. Let’s have a look around.<\/p>\n

The terminal is still very much a work in progress.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It’s huge, with lots of space for shops and restaurants. It feels like an unfinished airport terminal.<\/p>\n

Outside, work is progressing on the lift to Eigerglescher, known as the Eiger Express.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This will get passengers up to the top in an astonishing 15 minutes.<\/p>\n

All these passengers need to get to the terminal somehow, so a multi story carpark is being built. A new railway station is already complete.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It’s a huge undertaking, costing 470 million francs.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, up at Scheidegg it’s team photo time for Altitude Ski School.<\/p>\n
