November, right? Let's go with 50" + a little dusting just for good measure.

Actually, if memory serves, it's Ober Gabelhorn.

The writing on the building is: Hotel Restaurant Riffelberg.

It's a matter of perspective. In case it helps, I was skiing at the time.

Nope, not Austria. Keep guessing...

As krummholz appears to have already guessed, I'll give Bill a hint: This peak isn't quite as well known as its bigger pyramidal neighbor.

Licancabur comes to mind, but the shape seems wrong. Parinacota and Sairecabur are probably more likely candidates.

Several times for my family in the past year, typically coupled with vacation or a business trip. It's not why I joined the Obs, but I have certainly enjoyed the benefit.
