| Very clear and sunny weather, fantastic views from the summit and 'en route' through the snowy landscape. It was a beautiful day until on the way down our group got hit by an avalanche of ice blocks, somewhere near the Schwarzwandspitze a huge ice sheet or something must have collapsed. We didn't see any of those on the way up. Only one member of the group got hit (luckily?). He suffered a shattered shoulderplate and some broken ribs. The aluminium framework of his backpack probably saved his life there..
BTW - you'll love the Siegerlandhutte huttenwirt's daughter ;-) |
