My Naked Mountain Climbers


17swiss_600

I never understood the appeal or the thrill of taking off clothes in cold weather and doing something extreme, but I thought there should be a designated area for those folks. In the Swiss Alps, there are a group of adventurers who go hiking during the deep winter without any clothes who are currently fighting a pending law that would ban their desires to strengthen the shrinkage theory. The Swiss government is hearing a lot of complaints from dressed hikers who occasionally encounter these extreme nudist enthusiasts during their treks and are finally taking actions. (NYT)
