The weather is still a bit iffy at the top of the San Bernardino pass
The storm's coming in near the top of thte San Bernardino pass
The storm went right around my part of the road
The San Bernardino pass is still way up that valley
The road arcs along the lake near Sufers
The highway bridge is quite elegantly placed in the landscape
The highway bridge is quite elegantly placed in the landscape (1)
The guardrails are made of wood on this road in Graubünden
The granite-and-wood guardrails of the San Bernardino pass
The cobblestoned main street of Hinterrhein
Still on gravel, going past the ruins above Splügen
Starting out at the entrance to the town of Andeer
Spaghetti bolognese in San Bernardino Villagio
Ruins of an old fort above Splügen
Riding up this valley in Graubünden has so much lovely pine
Offroading on the way to Splügen
Mountains reflected in the lake near Sufers
Mojito rests at the top of the San Bernardino pass
Marco shows off his Stelvio jersey on the San Bernardino pass
Looking up the glacial river
Gorgeous wooden guardrail along the river near Sufers
A hanging pedestrian bridge crosses the icy glacial river
This one's just to show how low the lake is
Sunset at Auslikon, last swim in August
