off the train and into the hills!
so much to do, so little time...
bike path from Näfels to start of Pragel Pass
base of Pragel
closed to cars on wknds (after a certain point) - Yeah!
a great echo spot
Ryan contemplates the climb ahead of us
beware of giant frogs
the sun decided to join us!
Klontalersee
taking a breather to enjoy the view
narrow road by the lake
the lake has such a beautiful deep blue color
oops, flat
fixed and ready to go
not a bad place to have to change a tube
nothing to see here...
we had the road to ourselves
almost at the top -- brrrrrrrrr
didn't exactly have this when I was biking in Georgia a couple weeks ago
biking in June (!?)
cow procession up to the higher elevations
uh, guess we'll stop here for a minute...
it's a sheep parade
they're still coming...
wonder if we'll ever get out of here...
lunch break to warm up after the cold descent
"Fitness teller" (Fitness plate), complete with fried schnitzel
all full of schnitzel and ready to ride up another hill or two
in Illgau - what a hill
not a car around
can't pass up a view like this
a sign with instructions on how to go uphill (!) too bad it doesn't tell us how to do it on a bike
top of Ibergeregg Pass
happy hillseekers
flower boxes in every window - is it a Swiss law?
even the phone booths have flower boxes
VIDEO - a slight delay in our descent
