Hundsrügg

7th October 2008

Hundsrügg, SwitzerlandLike Sunday this was unfinished business, we’d set out to traverse the Hundsrügg a while back but some pretty violent thunderstorms made the ridge look unappealing so we didn’t make it. It’s actually a fair way as well, about 18km and a 1000m of ascent so that would have been a bit dire with lightning hitting the ridge around you. Yesterday I’d an early appointment in Fribourg so it made sense to go straight on to the Jaunpass and do this route.

It was mixed weather really, the odd patch of sunlight through the clouds but mostly cloudy with some light rain at times threatening to turn to snow. The earlier snow is melting a little but it was pretty deep at 2000m in places and there were tracks, presumably from the weekend, of snowshoes.
