Zermatt, 9-10.2023. For the organization of the Ski World Cup, the glacier was shaped for months by excavators. My GPS measurements, coupled with analysis of land use plans, showed that this work was partly illegal despite the silence of the organizers and authorities. Legal investigations into this matter are still ongoing in Italy and Switzerland.
