Plenty of Snow - Raufihorn, CH Tour

Raufihorn Tour with Beni and David.

Cross Training, we planned to go up about 1200m to about 2300m with Snowshoe/Ski (up) down on the Snowboard/Ski. We had to - for safety's sake - shorten it to about 650m up as the snowfall and clouds were too dense. No visibility higher up -- white in white. We all were equipped with LVS (Lawienenverschüttungsgerät (Avalanche Search/Beeper/Sender Instrument), Schaufel (Shovel) und Sonde (long stick)). However, we did not proceeded higher up into any possibly dangerous terrain at all today.
