Today we tried to beat the forecast weather of afternoon thunderstorms over the pass. Starting high from the Hotel Weisshorn gave us an advantage of only having to climb about 600 meters in our 4.5 hour hike. The hike was billed as having beautiful views but we didn’t see much of those views with fog and clouds rolling darkly across the peaks.

There wasn’t much to photograph with low clouds or fog. Let’s just say that we were going from the Whitehorn to the Blackhorn hotel. Below is a photo was sitting in our room waiting for dinner. As you can see it was a little cold in the room but then the soup and salad first courses for dinner were excellent.
