The Ueschinenhutte hike

By Edward Jones & Liam Edgeway

Day:1
We woke up on the 29th of July at 7:30am and went for breakfast and had frosties. Afterwards we made two lunches (one for today and tomorrow), we went back to camp and checked our bags for all the important equipment needed, afterwards we just had a bit of fun while we waited for the hike!
At 2:20pm we met Robert our guide but had to take our dinner with us in our bags (like meat, cheese, veg and peppers). At 2:30pm we set off for the hike, we firstly walked to the cable car and had a ride to the top of a mountain ( at roughly 1800m) and set off on foot.
We walked while taking pics of the views , it started spitting so we put our waterproofs on and then lighting struck. It started to hail and we hid under a tree with thunder coming down, dangerous! After getting soaked we decided to leg it! After 3 minutes of running we met a mud slide we couldn't cross it. So after an 1hour of trying to cross we had found a way to cross but it meant jumping over the mud slide!
After we had crossed a truck came to clear the path, a little to late. So then we just continued towards the hut soaked! We walked for about 1 mile till we saw our hut and we heard bells, cow bells. We walked up a steep hill to the hut, after 5 minutes we had reached our hut, phew. We took our boots off but we weren't allowed in, why?
We had to wait for them to clear up! But we finally got in and we got a tour of the hut, there were 3 bedrooms for us! But the toilet was a hole and next to it was a out of order toilet ( which actually flushed but was just for staff)! For dinner we had spaghetti and meat which Liam, Sam, Edward and Alex helped make it
(don't worry no one was sick!) then we went to bed.
Day 2: We woke up and had some frosties (again). Then we packed up and first watched the others go off to do rock climbing, but when we left we were trapped by the DANGEROUS cows! But we got through we traveled back to Kandersteg the signs said 2hours to get back but when we saw another sign and we realized we were 5 minutes quicker then expected! And we were heading the way the rock climbing people came up so it was a quicker route then the cable car!It was more adventurous with tree roots sticking out off the ground so it was harder.
We walked down hill for the last few minutes till we reached the field which was 5 minutes from the campsite at last our long hike/walk was over , can we do it again? NO ! Aw man!
