Catastrophe! That was the second attempt to get up the Kandel pyramid. Last year it wasn't nice (Glottertal side). This time from the Waldkirch side. Again it didn't work 😔. The paths under the summit are just not nice to drive. Again and again blocked and steep. I don't know if I always choose the wrong route 🤨 !?
