Axalp 2018 (MORE ADDED)

Post by Chucky »

Hi everybody,
Here are some images of the Axalp live shooting event. It is the first time for years that I didn't climbed the Wildgärst because the F-5s don't fly over there anymore (except the two with explosive shells), so in my opinion, it doesn't worth the climb just for few Hornets passes.

I didn't go to Abeflue but to the Faulhorn for the first time, it is located about four miles southwest of the KP, no chairlift there :biggrin: and we only had some Hornet passes. The first three images of the set were taken from there.

Thanks for the update. I've always wondered whether the Faulhorn is worth it or not. Your shots are great but is it not a little quiet? I'm genuinely interested as I'm considering going but maybe not next year. Cheers.

Yes it was very quiet but as we were at the Axalp three days,
it was worth changing location.

Yes, we've usually done two but it will be three next year subject to weather :smile:
