Lawinenbulletin 18.1.2017, 17:00 Uhr: Stufe 3 Erhebliche Gefahr Gefahrenstellen: alle Expositionen oberhalb 2200m Neu- und Triebschnee der letzten Woche überlagern eine schwache Altschneedecke … Die Gefahrenstellen sind schwer zu erkennen. Wummgeräusche und Risse beim Betreten der Schneedecke können auf die Gefahr hinweisen...

Dopo esserci stati più volte nel periodo estivo, non potevamo farci mancare una gita invernale nella bellissima Val Vignun. Così per l'ultima racchettata di stagione abbiamo deciso di salire alla Motta de Caslasc, come dice bene il nome si tratta di un motto situato proprio nel mezzo della Val Vignun. Risalendo la valle da...

Wir sind die einzigen Fahrgäste, die der Chauffeur im Mini-Postauto von Schiers über die steile und enge Strasse nach Stels, Mottis hochfährt. Glücklicherweise ist die Fahrbahn schnee- und eisfrei. Scheinbar unendlich lang reiht sich Kurve an Kurve, ein paar Personenwagen müssen Ausweichstellen benützen, um uns vorbei zu...

Vor uns drei Tage im Val Müstair. Wir freuen uns riesig, na ja, im Moment ist die Freude etwas gedämpft. Es regnet leicht, als wir um 6 Uhr starten. Eine halbe Stunde später regnet es in Strömen. Zum Glück ist der Vereina-Tunnel dicht, aber in der Dunkelheit hilft das auch nicht viel. In Zernez heitern Kaffee und Gipfeli...

Büelenhorn (2513 m) is a peak very close to Davos, between the Dischma and Flüela valleys. I started my hike at the golf course in Davos Dorf (during the winter, this golf course is used for cross country skiing). First I walked along the road passed Duchli and up to "In den Büelen", before I mounted the snowshoes. From...

Pischahorn (2980 m) is a mountain peak very close to Davos, and easily accessible from the Flüela valley. I started my hike at 8:00 in the morning at the parking lot for the Pischa aerial cable car. First I hiked straight up the rather steep hill through the forest. There was hardly any snow left, so the snowshoes remained...

Start of the hike at 8:00 o'clock in the morning in Sertig. There were quite a few backcountry skiers getting ready at the same time, but I seemed to be the only snowshoe hiker. In Sertig it was around -2°C when I started, and the snow was hard frozen. Therefore I could easily walk on the snow just with my hiking boots, and...

This tour was a great combination of mountain biking, hiking, and snowshoe hiking. It was also a tour going from summer to winter and back again! I started off with my mountain bike in Savognin where the chairlift valley station is located. Going uphill, I partially biked, and partially walked the bike. Unfortunately, I took...

Altre foto e info su: www.ariafina.ch È da oltre un mese che non andiamo in montagna e non vediamo l’ora di rimettere gli scarponi ai piedi, sappiamo che sulla neve ci si stanca e probabilmente stasera saremo cotti ma preferiamo goderci la bella giornata piuttosto che preservarci per la notte di capodanno. Dunque...

Altre foto e info su: www.ariafina.ch Stufi di andare a racchettare sempre nei soliti posti, in settimana ci diamo alle ricerche sul web, guarda qua e guarda là scoviamo una gita da svolgere oltre il San Bernardino proposta anche dall'Ente turistico della regione Viamala. Osservando un po’di foto e soprattutto le...

The idea with this snowshoe hike was to walk all the way around Piz Toissa, with start and end in Salouf. The weather was really nice and sunny in the morning, but thin clouds moved in around noon. I started this snowshoe hike in Salouf at 08:45 in the morning. The temperature was a mild -3°C. I followed the snow covered...

This was my first visit to St. Margrethenberg ever. Really nice and scenic area! I started this hike in Furggels at 08:30 in the morning. The temperature was -5° C with a little bit of wind, so it felt rather cold at the beginning. At the start I followed the road in southerly direction to the place called Tal. There I mounted...

In this snowshoe hike, I went from St. Margretenberg (Furggels) to Stelli and the same way back. At the start of the hike at 08:45 in the morning, the temperature was around freezing. First I hiked along the road to Fürggli (3 km), and then I continued on the forest road to Alp Marola. There was already a good snowshoe track...

Nice snowshoe hike to Bergüner Furgga and Sertigpass. Despite a military exercise in the area from 08:30 - 11:30, I was able to pursue my plan. The ascent from Bim Schära up to Bergüner Furgga is outside of the danger zone. I started my hike at 09:15 in Sertig. The alp road up to Bim Schära is still snow covered....

Sveglia alle ore 3.45, una buona colazione e via a prendere il grande Fredy a Malvaglia per le ore 4.30. Oggi un'oretta d'auto in direzione del Canton Grigioni, più precisamente a Fuorns nella Surselva, punto di partenza della nostra escursione... Inizio dell'escursione alle ore 5.30 Tempo dell'escursione al Piz Cristallina...

This was a great snow shoe hike to Isentällispitz / Gorihorn (2985 m). The weather was perfect with blue skies! Start of the hike at 07:45 in the morning. The temperature was +5°C with light winds. It felt a bit cold for the first half hour or so. There is hardly any snow left below 2300 m elevation. Higher up I tried to stay...

Avevo un conto in sospeso dall'ultima uscita in questa zona fatta un paio di settimane fa con il mio socio Fredy. Mi alzo molto presto e, dopo una bella colazione, alle ore 04.30 sono già in viaggio con l'auto verso Fuorns... Inizio dell'escursione alle ore 5.30 Tempo dell'escursione al Piz Uffiern 09.30 (senza pausa) Quota...

Altre foto e info su: www.ariafina.ch Giornata di vacanza buttata letteralmente al vento per salire con le racchette alla Seehütte sopra Splügen, piccola capanna privata e quindi chiusa al pubblico in riva all'Ober Surettasee. In passato avevamo già visto sia il rifugio che il lago, durante la stupenda escursione...

Great snow shoe hike to the summit of Piz Toissa, with start and end in Salouf. Beforehand, I did not find any report online about snow shoe hikes to Piz Toissa, but I wanted to give it a try on the summer route. Start of the hike in Salouf shortly before 9 AM, just before sunrise. The temperature was around -5°C. I followed...

Hinterrhein – Chilchalp – Chilchalphorn   In Hinterrhein direkt vom Bus auf harten Schneefeldern zügig die ersten Höhenmeter überwunden. Die Sonne brennt unerbärmlich. Ich gehe im T-Shirt. Bald wird es weniger steil die Schneedecke ist geschlossen und mit ein paar Zentimeter Neuschnee bedeckt. Meine Route folgt...
