Description
Last shot of this hike. Once again the waterfall from Grimselsee 2 but now with different light. I was not sure to post this one or not, but I thought, water is the essence of this lake and it's good to conclude this series with water.
I hope you've enjoyed this calm hike along the lake. The Grimselpass (2165 m, 7103 ft) is usually closed from November through May. There is a road from the pass to the Oberaarsee (2338 m, 7671 ft) with magnificent views over the Grimselsee (from this road you can distinguish the track we've hiked).

shivers yes. you should have posted it; trust your instincts. it's beautiful. there's hope here. i need to see that. water is the essence of that lake. it's also the essence of who we are. walks closer & puts hands on stones. i have to feel them. the vibrations from the water...soothing. i see a face in that stone. 2 of them...stacked on top of each other. like a totem pole. i see faces everywhere in these stones. wish i had some power point thing so i could circle them for you. but believe me, they're there. i can't believe you would have even considered NOT ending this series with this one. all those sad stone faces surrounded by the essence of life. it's a reminder to me that the essence of life is God. and he surrounds us...all those sad stone faces. time to climb out of this canyon. there's a patch of blue sky. vote. into favs.

Fiting end to a great hike...you had a lot of great photos from it and finishing with water was a good idea. I see faces in the stones too--the bones of the earth. Thanks Jan!
