Although the names of its resorts—St. Moritz, Davos, Klosters, Arosa—register almost automatic recognition, the region wrapped around them remains surprisingly unsung, untouched by the fur-clad celebs who make stage sets out of its sports centers, aloof to the glamour trends—quirky, resilient, and decidedly apart. Nowhere in Switzerland will you find sharper contrasts than those between the bronze seven-day citizens who jet into St. Moritz and the stalwart native farmers who nurse archaic dialects and gather their crops by hand as their Roman-Etruscan forebearers did. Resort life in winter contrasts sharply with the everyday existence of the native mountain farmers.
