Kristallhuette

On one of the few days that Daph could ski, we had the kids go to ski school and Joachim, Daph and I went to the top of the peaks to a "hut" where people relax before/during/after skiing.
The best views of the region come from a lodge built on the peak with large sitting areas for sunbathing, coffee drinking (morning), and preening (apres-ski).
Here - Daphne is posing with Joachim in front of the mountains that extend south beyond Italy. Daphne not only maintains total safety with her helmet on for the slopes; but also on the huge deck of the lodge. Joachim shows that as a true Bavarian, he not only doesn't ski with a helmet; he could ski to safety even without his skis. He is the best skier I have ever seen.
It was 10.30 in the morning on the deck but Daphne wanted to show how sunbathing could work (take off your helmet for effect). We loved the glass walls. We couldn't capture the steep drop off to the certain death below the perch - you will have to come visit for yourself.

If you make the trip - they have table service with fur blankets for your comfort.
