Augstbordpass by bike

August 18th, 2008

augstbordpass

After a short night in a tent near Randa ( Zermatt-vally ), i started the day with cereals.
I took the cable-car from St Niklaus to Jungen at about 9.30 am. 3 1/2 h to walk to the top of Augstbordpass was written on the first sign i saw in Jungen. I thought it is going to be an easy day !
But it was 5 pm as i reached the pass ! Beside a few stops for lunch and to photograph the landscape, the heavy backpack, the bike and the stony path made it a long-lasting agony.
nothing became better as i recognized that i forgot suncream at home.
with no force i took the downhill to the first secure place where i could spend the night.
it was about 9.00 pm when i was doddering in my tent and felt asleep for about 12 hours….
