Tuesday 9.18.07 – Valley Hike and Trümmelbach Falls
Click on any picture below to see a larger version
Trümmelbach Falls is a fascinating place where a stream of water has cut its way
through the hard rock, creating deep crevices and caves, only a few feet wide.
A man-made series of tunnels lets visitors access the caves,
and see the torrents of water cascading through the confined space
This water was ice just a few hours before you see it flowing before your eyes, and the mist
and wind it produces can chill you to the bone, even if it's a lovely 80°F in the valley outside.
It was raining earlier, but it's drying out now.
We walked back down the valley and encountered traffic.
My Oh My, those cows are lookin' fine!
