Touring SSE of Hemberg

It was a nice day, so I had a couple of hours to go to Gössigenhöchi. Unfortunately the trailhead was icy and I could neither drive nor ski on it. So I walked 1.5km (30 minutes) on my boots. Finally I strapped on my skis and climbed up for the first time in almost four years. The skis and skins still worked, thankfully. The snow was not very deep, but it was good. Relatively soft, but compact. Even though this is a mixed route, the snow field was wide and it was easy to find a route not trampled by walkers.

I had to turn back after an hour (and I also wanted to take it easy). The route was so easy that I only fell once when I tried to turn too fast. But I wouldn't try anything harder at this point. I met 3 groups on the way down: one with skis, one with snowshoes and one mixed.
