How I escaped a life-threatening situation... During my alpine hike to the very remote and beautiful Wisshorn, I chose an old, insider route. Right at the most difficult crux, a thick bank of fog rolled in, and I almost found myself in a life-or-death situation. In this video, I reflect on the correct course of action in such a situation (my statements have been reviewed by a mountain guide). And I also showcase a wildly romantic landscape that is simply breathtakingly beautiful.The Wisshorn is a Swiss mountain in the Safien Valley (Safiental), close to Lenzerheide, Flims Laax, Davos or St. Moritz. It's in Graubünden (Grisons). The Safien Valley is well known for hiking, mountaineering and even ice climbing.
