Switzerland 1999

	Panoramaweg 1024 x 768 196K	The footpath along the precipitous ridge is visible here. There are 3500 individual marked trails totaling over 50000 km in Switzerland. Walking heaven!
	Interlaken z4 1024 x 768 203K	The River Aare at Interlaken.
	Interlaken ze 1024 x 768 142K	The river Aare was very high this year, after the heavy snowfalls. The water's surface reflects the twilight sky.
	Meiringen f 800 x 600 92K	The first of two pictures of Reichenbach Falls near the town of Meiringen. Sherlock Holmes is supposed to have fallen to his death over the waterfall.
	Meiringen j 636 x 768 134K	This picture was taken looking down from a foot-bridge. The steps leading down give an indication of the scale of the falls. Also worth a visit here is Aareschlucht, a glacial gorge with a walkway which is partly suspended from the rock wall, and partly tunneled through it.
	Thunersee 597 x 768 128K	Interesting architecture beside Lake Thunersee.
	Matterhorn 1024 x 768 135K	As seen from Zermatt on a June afternoon. I took many photos but this is the classic view.
	Monte Rosa 1024 x 768 190K	Near Zermatt in the south of Switzerland. This shot was taken from the footpath to Schwarzsee. The glacier is Gornergletscher.
	Woolie Ones 1024 x 768 252K	Sheep on a mountain path near Zermatt. Their horns are just one characteristic which differentiates them from British sheep.
