Nov 12 - Sion, Switzerland


Left immediately after breakfast for the Val d'Herens. Steep climbing immediately. 425 meters up to Vex, only 1 km from Sion. The rest was generally level. Where they were working on the road I had to walk, sometimes carry the bike. I arrived in Les Hauderes, cycled down the one street, and had a chocolate bar. Left for the downhill run of 927 meters, taking pictures occasionally. Arrived in Sion at 1 pm. Had lunch, then read old Newsweeks and wrote. After Dinner I showed them my Oklahoma collectibles. Mr. and Mrs Digier went to a party. I read and wrote until 10 pm.

Mileage Sion - Les Hauderes - Sion 64 km
