I put this question under "Larger Formats (8x10 & up)" only because I did not se e a category for anything on "Tips On Location Shooting". And I will be shootin g with my 8x10 Deardorff.

Anyway, I am going to Switzerland for two weeks of shooting in the Alps with the above-mentioned camera. I am doing extensive web research on the country and I have ordered several travel books that claim they can direct a traveler "off th e beaten path".

My request is this: If you have traveled in Switzerland and gone off the tourist paths, I would appreciate very much any suggestions you wish to give on getting out into the Alps to where the grand vistas are and where the people are not.

Thanks.
