Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Cheese festival today. Normally this is a big event where the cheese that has been made in the high pastures during the summer is divided amongst the owners of the cattle. Anyone can buy a share in a cow - a one-eighth share will get you about 7 kilograms of delicious cheese. You can buy a share here: https://www.wengen-chaesteilet.ch/en/chaesteilet/



This year’s event was very much scaled-back, needless to say, but it's still a good day.

Yes the Edelweiss Hotel where I've usually stayed for the last few years when I'm in Wengen have their own cow and the cheese produced from it is one of the options on the breakfast buffet. Madeye-Smiley

@Chris Brookes, Hard to understand the logic of having 1.5m spacing in the queue at the ticket office and then squashed together like sardines in the cable car.

Popped back to the U.K. for a few days. I've never seen Zurich airport so quiet. Check-in 3 (the super convenient one down at the railway station) was closed, and we were directed to check-in 1 upstairs. Here's what we found when we got there.



This was at 6pm, and it was utterly deserted. We checked in at the first class desk (the only one open) and flew back to the U.K. with Lufthansa (there are no Swiss flights) via Frankfurt. I'd really expected things to be busier, but it seems nobody is travelling. I guess it's the quarantine requirement in the U.K. and elsewhere. Something needs to change, or this winter's going to be a bit quiet.

New Corona winter pass for non-skiers:

Includes unlimited trips to the Jungfraujoch. As usual, the price structure makes it a bargain for locals, but less so for tourists.

It's really warm, so we went up to Eigergletscher this morning. The building work for the Eiger Express is almost finished. Eigergletscher has been transformed, and not in a good way.



New piste from Eigergletscher towards Scheidegg complete with cannons. It emerges at the bottom of the existing Schwarzen run, so you can continue down to Scheidegg, Arven or Wixi via Fallboden.



The weather’s gorgeous - it certainly doesn’t feel like November.

Snow down to about 1700 metres last night (top of bumps). It won’t last - warming up significantly over the next couple of days.

The authorities in Grindelwald want to build a new piste from Bodmi to Grund, to provide a skiable link between the First and Kleine Scheidegg / Männlichen areas. Some objections have been raised however. https://www.jungfrauzeitung.ch/artikel/186153/

Me thinks a long strip of dendex may be the answer to that idea. There is a little piste from Bodmi down to the side street just above the railway station. In a "good" season it may be skiable on half dozen occasions!!
