Piz Minschun 3068m, 23/7 2011
Minschun Pitschen 2927m
Piz Clünas 2793m





 The weather doesn't start good today. A low cloudbase
 and light rainshowers reduces our enthusiasm. We use
 the cableway from the village Ftan in Switzerland, up to
 2064m.
But bad weather can provide dramatic sceneries. Going up.



 Arriving at the lake Lai da Minschun on 2642m.

From the lake you climb to a saddlepoint on 2850m. Then
fairly simple climb to the summit, Piz Minschun, 3068m.
Lots of clouds up here.
Slowly the weather improves, opening up the clouds.



 Descending again to get clear weather. Almost back at the saddlepoint. From here it's easy to reach the slightly lower Minschun Pitschen, 2927m. 


 Free from clouds with better views. Descending towards the saddlepoint, 2850m. Jorma going towards Lai da Minschun. Behind it is the path leading towards Piz Clünas.



 Reaching Piz Clünas, 2793m. Behind it Piz Minschun. Some kind of rotor cloud has formed. Edelweiss. 



 Almost back down again. The village Ftan in the middle.
