Zermatt and the Matterhorn

"There have been joys too great to be described in words, and there have been griefs upon which I have not dared to dwell, and with these in mind I say, climb if you will, but remember that courage and strength are naught without prudence, and that a momentary negligence may destroy the happiness of a lifetime. Do nothing in haste, look well to each step, and from the beginning think what may be the end."

Edward Whymper

The mission....

So the mission has not been fulfilled, I managed 42 of the 60 day goal in the 2009/2010 season. Then it all changed in January. I met a fantastic woman on the way back from Oban at New Year (my last post), keeping with the theme I proposed from a powder filled Engelberg only a matter of weeks later, by phone of all things. During the course of working out the logistics, I accepted a job in Visp (Switzerland) and am now in the process of completing the paperwork on an appartment in Zermatt. With all year round snowboarding, a new start at work and my fiance by my side, the only goal I have now is to be happy, healthy and have fun.

About Me

My photo
tino_11
Been riding 4 seasons so far, with about 12 days in my first, 18 in my second, 30 in my third, and 42 in 2009/2010. It simply isn't enough, so I've decided to up sticks, change the job and move to the Swiss Alps. Once the 2010/2011 winter is out the way, I am going to start to learn to climb so I can achieve a dream I'm not going to post about just yet.
