    12:12 When you show the washed out bridge sliding down the mountain only to reveal that Fern has already crossed!!! 😮 Epic!

    Great view of the Matterhorn. It almost didn’t look real out there among the clouds.
    Wow - you guys were brave going over that long suspension bridge! How long was that?
    How civilized having that wooden overhang over the edge of the trail to protect hikers from falling rocks.
    That partially filled tube was pretty sketchy. Was thinking you’d get in and come to a place it was all blocked off. Wonder how they got all that concrete, rebar, and metal tubes all the way up there to make that all? Must be all those helicopters you constantly saw.
    Thanks for sharing your epic trip!

      It didn't seem real to us either! The Charles Kuonen Suspension Bridge is about 500 meters, so about .3 miles long. It felt like it went on forever!
      The overhang was concrete and rebar! And we were very grateful for it. Some rock actually fell while we were traversing. The culvert full of mud really made our hairs stand on end! Every one kept getting worse. I think the AT really taught us, the only way is forward!
      Helicopter deliveries were so normal over there, cannon imagine the training and skill it takes to fly those over such rugged terrain.
      Thank you for being so supportive of our channel!
