First Mountain

Today we took another adventure to the top of First Mountain in Switzerland. The day began with a 25 minute gondola from where we were staying in Grindelwald to the top of the mountain. It was amazing to watch the scenery change from a sunny day with no snow to a hazy peak with snow everywhere.

Over the course of the next hour the sun did it’s job and slowly broke through the snowy mist to reveal the snow covered peaks surrounding us. While up there we did a cliff walk on a boardwalk that wrapped around the side of a cliff and Julie did a zip line/flyer hybrid. She was strapped into a harness face down in the Superman position. It then accelerated up the mountain backwards at over 45 mph before flying back down at over 60mph!

After a scenic 25 min ride back down we were greeted by another amazing sunset in town.Read more
