Morning view from the slope of Nägelisgrätli in W direction to the the Grimselsee. This hydropower reservoir is impounded by two dams. The Spitallamm Dam visible in this photo is undergoing reconstruction: a new dam is built just downstream in order to complement the existing one. The Bernese Alps with Finsteraarhorn (centre, 4274 m) can be seen in the background of the image.
