Wow what a nice place! St Chrischona has an amazing view from where you can see up to 10 other summits. The campus is a theological school that hosts over 100 students. I just had the chance to talk for half hour with the director of the school which took me around the whole campus explaining the hostory and the current doings of the Chrischona society. Higly
10 May 2015The B day
nope, not my birthday, but the day I tackle 2 out of 3 of the cantons starting with B. Maybe you guessed it, I'm definitely not mixing Bern with another canton :) so today is the Basel Day! The plan it to start from the lowest point of Basel city (BS) then go to the S. Chrischona monastery (BS highest point) then on to the Rheinpark where the lowest point of Basel Land is and then

9 May 2015Achtung Gefahr
Soso... finally time for a new summit! After an intense April with a lot of studying and planning for the next summits (more of this in a later post) it is now time for some biking and a bit of hiking. Now, the non swiss germans will be thinking what the heck with title. Well, achtung Gefahr is what we say when we see a car from Aargau. And that is we are now. :)
20 Mar 201510th summit
Yay! After some 2500m up, 63km and 11.20h the tenth summit is done :) for me its now a little break with the Säntis :D but again an amazing day in Appenzell
The Säntis again
Time for some Appenzellerland again, this time Innerrohden. Destination the Säntis via Wasserauen with the skis. After some tests yesterday I found a ski carrying solution that might work even for longer trips. We'll see. For now, lets get on the bike and ride to my transition where I'll meet Giulia and two friends of her. So stay tuned for some more info and hopefully nice solar eclipse pics

After the light lunch we thought a nice run would be good, so we run down to our bikes in snow and mud with only one little fall. Once on the bikes, we went full speed back to the car trying to get there before night fall. Funny enough 500m before the car we reached Chiara and Mauro that had been cruising back from their SchniPo (wiener schitzel with fries). Was really cool to be
9 Nov 2014Sunday trip to Zug
One of the biggest challenges of 27summits.ch is, belive it or not, finding the lowest point of a canton. In fact depending on the geography of the canton the lowest point might not actually be a point but a polygon (for example when the lowest point is a lake) or a line (when the lowest point is a canons border crossing orthogonally a river). Today 's lowest point is probably one of the trickiest ones.
