I'll be bringing my dog along, I think it's a reasonable route for her! I hope that's alright.

Hello! Will be coming with a car from Zurich. If you are interested in joining I’ll be leaving from Rüschlikon around 8.15.

Ps. I see that avalanche risk is considerable for this region (3- according to white risk). I haven’t done the route personally, but would we be around any major dangers, steeper sections etc?
