Images from Nufenenpass and Aletsch glacier in Switzerland

This August I spent a few Days in the Swiss alps together with my friend Anton. We parked our car at the Nufenenpass and walked a couple of hours to the hut at Corno Gries (2338m). It was a new experince to me, staying in such a hut – very nice though!
Next morning we walked further up the pass and had some nice views of the Gries glacier.
Our next target was the Aletsch glacier, after a short ride with the cablecar and a short walk we reached the summit of Eggishorn at 2934 meters. From Eggishorn we had splendid views of the Aletsch glacier and the surrounding alps.
