The Wetterhorn group from Kaiserstühl on Lake Lungern

With Venus and snowwisps.

The Wetterhorn group consists of the four peaks to the left: (l-r) the Rosenhorn, Wellhorn (just in front of it), Mittelhorn, and Wetterhorn. The north face of the Wetterhorn is the beginning of the famous line of north faces that includes the Eiger. Since the Wetterhorn is 7 meters higher than the next in this group, it scratches a moving front first, thereby marking a weather change and accounting for its name. These mountains form the western edge of the Central Alps.
