Winter has begun in Leysin. This first photo was from a night ascent in Leysin on a Friday in November. The powder was amazing! Unfortunately, we've been in a drought of snow here recently, but we're talking with Ullr hoping that he'll bring us more snow soon.
These are some views of the Matterhorn in Zermatt. I spent the first weekend in December in Zermatt. Cold, but good snow and beautiful views.
These photos are from a morning ascent of the piste in Leysin. I saw the sun rise over the snow capped mountains. Also amazing that morning was the inversion...check out the clouds that were lower than me.
