How'd you like that gentle breeze when you walked the stairs to the top observation platform? 3/4ths of the group I was with stepped outside and immediately retreated to shelter. I made it to the top but on the way the wind ripped my LSU cap off my head. You're absolutely right though, very beautiful sight.

Yeah. At the top of the Klein Matterhorn there is a cave carved in to a glacier about 50 yards down a ski slope from the coffee shop. I went to explore the cave while my wife stayed in the coffee shop. When I emerged from the cave about 15 minutes later, there was a whiteout blizzard going on. I tried to get back to the coffee shop but I kept sliding back down the hill. Finally I was able to crawl there on my hands and knees. The people in the coffee shop were watching me from the window and thought it was so funny they were taking videos of me. My wife was afraid I was going to pull a Sonny Bono.... I know the platform you are talking about and had the same experience up there. I have a picture of me with my hair frozen solid. ....We had an all day cable car pass. A couple of hours later we were on the next level down where they have a cafeteria with an outdoor terrace. By that time the weather had cleared and that is where we had the view I was referring to. The most spectacular scenery I have ever seen.
