In late February, Switzerland experienced a last downpour of snow for the winter. No exception in the Region of Beatenberg high above the lake of Thun. Fritz Bieri, a nature photographer captured the following scenes on one of his walks. He has a fabulous web site with lots more pictures of this beautiful place on earth.

Lots of snow is putting pressure on the roofs of houses
Driveways to properties have to be cleared
Snow ploughs clear roads to make them drivable
Fritz Bieri's own driveway has to be cleared
Fairy-tale pictures on the Niederhorn mountain above lake Thun
Fairy-tale views on the Niederhorn mountain above lake Thun
Walking through deep snow is difficult but worthwhile
Riding up to the Niederhorn on the early gondolas
offers a great sight, as the snow will not last too
long in the sunshine
One has to be careful with fresh snow, as it could
collapse which could land you much nearer the lake
Fabulous view towards Thun
The trees are carrying a heavy weight
Winter can offer wonderful views
Sled and walkways have been cleared
A descend on a sled is a great experience
And still the snow keeps falling
