The climb was listed as "moderate". This means that if it's puppy's first walk, bring a shovel...just in case. (they forgot their shovel, so mommy carried puppy the rest of the way).
Near the top, looking out at the remaining snow, we were reminded that when downhill skiing, don't follow crazy cousin Joe down the hill. Wiser words were never spoken.
In the end we had to settle for a drone image of the lake taken around this time last year. Lake Lucerne was almost 2 feet lower then. It will be interesting comparing this year's southern drone view from last year's. The board meeting and tanning competition is over. Cocktails were debated, new contests were considered, and peelers were disqualified. Now is the time to head North (and no small amount of East for some) to level lifts, put in boats and rafts, pull out some fish, and grasp a tow line for the first time this year.
-Nemo, heading North and more than a little East.
