I did not have a lot of time  for SOTA this year, but i was so hot, i wanted to go to a cooler place. Well it was cooler, but the sun was still burning like hell. By public transport you can reach Ibergeregg very easily. This pass is well known by Biker and their heavy Motorcycles. Anyway, i had to walk up to Furggelenstock and do some work up there.
During the hike i often was seeking for shadow by nearby trees. Al of sudden i was looking at a cow, that was hidden in the tree, seeking shadow as well i guess. Later i meet a young boy, explaining he is checking his cattle, there shall be 52 of them, i wished him good luck and walked on. Later i head a very loud whistle and all the cattle cam from all over the place.
at the summit there was an two Alpenzeiger, they were like a roof and one could sit underneath in the shadow. I was happy with this. On the hike back there was a sign, do not cross a herd of cows, but there was no other way back to where i started. So i walked right trough this small herd of cows. i belive they where to tired to move..
