Mountaineering the Alps

Posted by mark on 02/22 at 12:01 AM

A beautiful video that begins with a helicopter taking the mountaineers to the base of the Swiss Alps near the Matterhorn, follows some of their climb, and shows lots of gorgeous scenery. It’s a lot more scenery than mountaineering, but that’s okay—the view is incredible and it’s worth the watch.

Hi, this video is very cool. Don´t you have some photos from this action? If you do, please share it on Dromoman.com - the travellers community server, I guess they could get good ranking in there grin.

Thanks.

he Swiss climate is generally temperate, but can vary greatly between the localities, from glacial conditions on the mountaintops to the often pleasant Mediterranean climate at Switzerland’s southern tip. Summer tends to be warm and humid at times with periodic rain so it is ideal for pastures and grazing.
