The mountain blushes before it wakes.
Alpenglow is that impossible pink the east faces catch fifteen minutes before sunrise — the moment this lodge is named for, and the reason breakfast is served facing the glass.
13:00 · High noon
Out the door, into the thin bright air.
Ski-touring in winter, seventeen marked trails in summer, and a guide named Kaspar who knows where the marmots live and won't tell the other guests.
21:40 · Blue hour
The valley lights come on like a slow idea.
Dinner is five courses of whatever the valley grew this week, then the terrace, then the sky doing the only show worth staying up for. Bortle 2, no light pollution, thick blankets provided.
