Photo: White Out Switzerland

A white out sweeps through Andermatt, Switzerland and the only thing one can see is the bright red park bench.

During the winter months, this red park bench in Andermatt, Switzerland is not the ideal place to be meeting a friend, relative or loved one. This is not even a great place to relax and read a newspaper or book, at least until spring begins to show its colors.

When winter conditions hit the town of Andermatt, Switzerland, and a white out strikes, a brightly painted red park bench is about the only fixture one can see. The snow around Switzerland can reach great depths at times and not even a park bench can be found.

White out conditions in Switzerland are not an uncommon sight during the winter months. When all settles and the snow blizzards stop, tourists and locals who love skiing, tobogganing or snowshoeing head to the mountains for a real taste of winter bliss.

Switzerland, Europe is the perfect place to visit for those who love the cold, winter conditions where the great outdoors is paradise. ... continue below the picture...
