Training tour by Olaf and Lydia together with Lydia's dad Frank Schubert from 2. to 8. July to the Piz Bernina (4049 m ) in the Alps

The Piz Bernina is located in the Eastern Alps and is the only mountain in this region above 4000 meters height. Furthermore, is has one of the most attractive ascents in the Alps: the Bianco Ridge. This amazing snow edge is the most exciting in the whole Alps. A dream for every climber!

Lydia enjoys the good weather. The day before it rained. (original pic: 42 K) Lydia and Frank Schubert in the lower third of the Bianco Edge. Further above it becomes more iced and steeper.
