Euro Grumble 2025 - A Mag Shindig 3/9 - 3/16

[Buster Highmen]

^^Nice, K2 is in. Dig it.

Buster - methinks that's the Lenzerheide day, en route to san Mo. Poor Michele got fucked on the parking fees, Dangitall.

See https://www.tetongravity.com/forums/...95#post5641595 from 2019.

Yeah, cool day, Lenzerheide impressed me.
The parking sitch was off, vendul thought he had paid....

That was a pretty epic roadtrip day. Up and over the Julian pass?...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We had a deep snow day at Disentis, Gemmstock, and some of us at Klosters and St Mo. That was a weathery few weeks.

Any other repeat offenders this season? BobMc, MDay and Spancer, Mr.Mike, Charliedon'tsurf, Leo? Who else?

fwiw, I think it's Julier Pass with Bivio at the base, a teensy 2 poma touring center with 800 vertical meters and literally limitless touring options. vendul lived there for a while.

There's always the possibility of the Oberalpstock tour from Disentis . I hope I don't lose the group again, but the view from the top looking back at Piz Ault and Piz Gendusas was pretty swell.

Ah, so...

Those vans looked less well packed than ours. The 25 or so of us traveled like champs, even riding in the Chef's car.

And yeah, Julier, not Julian. Off by a short ways, over by Slovenia.

One of the most fun days raging an obscure euro pow stash with the grumble.

Sounds like Europe is adopting standardized carryon policies this Fall. The upshot is all bags for carryon and personal will be checked for size and weight. Still to be implemented, so keep informed as some bags that worked before may not pass the test and incur a costly baggage fee.

I am just waiting for the time that the only way to get my carry-on to fit is to wear my boots onto the plane.

[cat in january]

Probably will put my helmet on my head when pack goes in measured carry on and pass through gate wearing it. At least I will feel safe.

Is Moevenpick still a good choice for an overnight hotel in Zurich before our mid morning flight out? Any other go to airport hotels? I have a feeling it doesn't matter too much.

A lot of threads and Buster talking points, PM's, etc to reread and peruse to find all the nuggets.

I stayed at the Holiday Inn Express Zurich Airport, it was cheap, clean, and had a shuttle to and from the airport.

I kinda slept on 3 chairs pushed together outside the closed coffee shop in the airport until Anwar Sadat came over and had to clean the area LOUDLY.

Ditto.

Also, leave yourself some time after you check in to take the train down to Zurich's "Old Town" area and hang out in the afternoon/evening.

Sure it wasn't Saddam?

[Djongo Unchained]

Definitely Egyptian, not Iraqi. Yeah, yeah, definitely, definitely.

[BobMc]

I’d probably recommend the Holiday Inn Express over the Egyptian Magician. It was a super studio like room that I’d never stayed in, but pretty cool, nice window overlooking the road below. Which was a road that featured a McDonalds! Get yourself one of those Cheeseburger Royales!
