Skunked In Switzerland!

My ambitions for activating several SOTA Summits in Switzerland fell far short.  Switzerland has been experiencing one of the worst "summer" seasons in many decades.  This is impacting tourism, and certainly impacted our plans.

I was not able to activate the high SOTA summits I had planned on in Graubünden and Bern Cantons.  Persistent rain, fog and thunderstorms prevented us from safely doing so.  Especially with thunderstorms about, “discretion is the better part of valor”.

I did manage one (1) activation depicted herein, Monte Tamaro, Ticino Canton, on a beautiful fully sunny day.

Not to complain too much, we did manage 12 hikes in 22 days in Switzerland.  Hiking / walking about 130 KM (81 miles), with about 25,000 feet elvation gain, and a maximim elevation of 9,163 feet in Piz Clunas, above the town of Scuol, Graubünden.
