I need some help with a funny, slangy Swiss phrase...umm....as if he'll need more distraction as we're already blabbering in his face on the summit.

He was born in Sierre so more than likely he speaks French. His website is in French as well so if you know any French, yell that I guess, ha! I only speak japanese and english so i'm out of luck.

Took the truck up Palomar around noon. Sun was out, 40-45 degs.
A couple working a tough 9-10% section at about 4000'. Saw about 10-12 riders on my run up/down.
At 5000' there's about 2-3' snow.
Local hang.
The South Grade was dry all the way up. However, if you're doing it today with a lot of cars both ways, there's very little shoulder - the snow hasn't been cleared all the way off the road. The East Grade & Canfield Rd. had some big piles of slush/snow in sections. Dicey descent next week if it's like it was today.
No coffee & pie for me today. The parking lot was jammed and nearest space was about 800 metres away. All the families out with the kids and the sleds/saucers.
Great looking lodge. Photo on the fly from truck does it no justice.
