Piz Kesch and Piz Porchabella, 10-11th March 2005
My third trip back to Piz Kesch. This time with Blair and Lissie. 2100m and 5.5 hours to the ski depot. Hard work making track through the fresh powder. Second day Piz Porchabella and back down Sertig valley in lovely powder. The first real day of spring.
