My four goals for the trip are:
- skin up a minimum of 15,000' including at least skiing up some of the minor 3000 meter peaks (Rothorn, Gornergrat, Hohtalli, or the Stockhorn)
- enjoy the time with some of my oldest buddies
- savor a once in a life-time stay at the Grand Hotel Zematthof
- sip some genepi, the absinthe of the Valais mountains
