To the Blüemlisalp-Hut which is at 2840m above sea level. Uff what a bad timing with the hail 🙈 On clear days it’s so beautiful up there by the glacier. I worked there some time ago over multiple weeks. (It might even be possible that we’ve met, depending on the year/date you visited).
I hiked up/down there more than anywhere else (probably about 25 times). The very first time I started too fast and overestimated my condition a bit, it was nice to feel my limits. Later, my record time for hiking up was just above 2h. I tried to be faster, but never managed to crack that 2h mark. Oh well… (The signpost says 4h10, and/but a normal paced hike took me about 3h.)
On a side note: Last year the glacier was significantly smaller than the previous years, that really was a shock to see with my own eyes rather than “just reading about it in a news article” 🥺
