Photographer’s Note

Swiss mountains are very beautiful and their wilderness is a delight for the adventurous climber.

Just imagine waking up long before dawn and hurrying out to climb one of the numerous peaks in the best hours. After hours of efforts in the cold and the snow the last rock before the summit is mastered, you haul yourself up to your goal and you discover either:
- a bench donated by one of the competing motorists organisation TCS and ACS or an insurance company
- a full size railway station
- a panoramic restaurant with plenty of tourists curious to add this exhausted and unaware climber to their family album.

This is here the 3rd possibility, the panoramic restaurant "Alpentower" above Meiringen in the upper Bernese Alps that offers stunning mountain views in all directions.
