THE PULSE - Your source for survival, skills, and more from Rocky Mountain Editor Steve Howe

Der Yodelblog

A photo preview from our latest Editor's Choice testing junket to Switzerland


Well, I'm still tired. All my stinky gear is STILL in the duffle it was hastily crammed into whilst leaving Grindelwald. I've got a wicked chest cold (again). And I've barely left the couch -or set down the remote control - since returning to Rancho Elvis. Sounds like my typical post-trip chaos and sloth.

I have, however, edited my way through most of the 2,000 keeper photos I shot. So it's time for a virtual field trip, kiddies.

Click on the gallery below to enjoy this peek into Switzerland-; - an unbelievably awesome country. My application for cultural asylum is still in process. Stay tuned. -- Steve Howe
