Urnerboden

I participated today at one of our yearly company community days helping herdsman on various tasks at the Urnerboden alp for a full day. We worked in the hayfields in the morning and in the forest in the afternoon. Blip taken by Michel F.

As always, beautiful summer weather and a cheerful group of 40 work colleagues. Sun tanned, tired but happy now having "Älpler Magronen and Öpfelmus" up here still on the terrace.

P. came up by train and bus late afternoon and we stay now for the night to do a long hike tomorrow.

More information about the alp and the small permanent settlement below.

"The Urnerboden is a village in the high valley of Urner Boden, and also an alpand a small high Alpine permanent settlement in the Swiss canton of Uri. At 8 kilometres (5.0 mi) in length, it is believed to be the largest alp in Switzerland. It forms a disconnected part of the municipality of Spiringen, separated from the rump of that municipality by some 8 kilometres (5.0 mi) of the municipality of Unterschächen and by the Klausen Pass."
