Winter in Austria: Up To The Gampenbahn - St. Anton am Arlberg

http://www.TravelsWithSheila.com
Even "perfect me" (ha-ha) manages to screw up every now and then and today was a "perfect" example. Somehow I managed to lead us from a blue run (easiest) to red (more difficult) to black (hardest) on steep inclines where we had to dig the front crampons on the snowshoes into the snow. Rather like climbing up a waterfall....not fun...and schvitz (sweat) was flying in all directions.

A well deserved rest at the top of the Gampenbahn, sitting in the sun along with all the other "normal" people...
