SAC cabins are special. Mind boggling that our tribe has been building these works of art in the most inhospitable spots our country offers. The Albert-Heim-Hütte is a gem, staffed by an awesome team. The hut sits on a spur, looking out over what’s left of the...

They’ve forecast thunderstorms as of noon. I get up to Moosfluh- above Riederalp- early. At 10:30 not a single glider is on the air. Strange, we’re in the Mekka of free flying. I launch. Right into a gentle morning thermal. As I arrive above Fiesch, others...

I spend the day washing clothes, eating, recharging , and catching up on my blog. In my video of today, I’ll review the instruments I’m carrying with me. Tomorrow I’ll be pushing East again, despite forecast thundershowers. And my live tracking device will...

Weather predictions. Even after 27 years of flying I’m still a sucker for good forecast. And the forecast for Fiesch was looking very good, so I could not resist jumping west for a change to try to get in some points. You see, we have this online contest. Pilots...

I wake up, lay out my tent in the sun to dry off the moisture. Not sure what to make of Slovenia COVID-blacklisting Switzerland. Stick to my goal? Change plans? I pack up my gear & get going. One last check that I didn’t forget anything? Let it be, don’t have...

From Elm I hike up to Segnes Pass, at 2600 m asl. The first 500 m there’s a cable car, the rest is a grueling hike. When I finally arrive at the top, the north wind is howling. Wrong direction. I hike down the other side, figuring eventually the north wind would...
