Because yesterday, I had the chance to make a short trip
above the fog, I decided today I'll to Grimsel and Furka.
2 mountains, swiss-biker have to do every year.

The fog went up until 1000m (near lake of Lungern)

From Brünig-Peak down to Meiringen, back into the fog again.

First part of the trip, I zipped the google kmz-file for those,
who are interested.

Now up to the Grimsel-Pass, with 2 storage power plants
fed from two artificial lakes.
