View from the vicinity of Brägji in SE direction down to the bottom of the Rhone Valley with the town of Visp. The most prominent summits in the background are from left to right: Hillehorn (3181 m), Bortelhorn (3194 m), Glishorn (2525 m), Fülhorn (2678m), and Spitzhorli (2737 m). Note the difference between the very dry S-facing slopes in the foreground and the forested N-facing slopes in the background of the image.
