The Jungfrau!

This magnificent view of the mighty Jungfrau was on the trail from Grutchalp to Murren along the top of the westward cliff of the Lauterbrunnen valley. From the beginning of the trail we got terrific views of the mountains, including the Eiger, Monch and Junfgfrau. They were almost completely snowclad and so bright that you could hardly look at them.

We took about two hours on the trail to Murren - surely two of the most memorable hours that we have ever spent. There was every variety of mountain scenery - green pastures dotted with flowers, green forest land with patches of snow, rushing streams with snow reaching to their edges, steep cliffs, and always the magnificent white mountain outline to our left across the narrow valley.

Along the Murren Trail

Along with the everpresent yellow dandelion flowers were large patches of these yellow flowers which I take to be buttercups. June 5, 1967
