Gummgrat (2075 m.a.s.l.)

As the name almost suggests, this self-proclaimed ridge descends from the Gummfluh. On the national map, it is point 2075 that is targeted on this ski tour. Close by is another elevation called Höje Stand. The Gummfluh south ridge divides the cantons of Vaud and Bern as a natural border, and the ascent is possible from both sides.
