As Franz allways says, frostbite is not a joke or a fairy tail. I might even loose the front part of two toes.
As you might know, I'm an old mountaineer, with a few decades of winter excursions in my back, but even so. I think the photo is a good advice for everybody :wink:
Of course, I'll be there next year (if I can convince my wife to let me go :lol: ).
Again, the Wintertraining has been one of the highlights of my reenactor life.
Thanks to Michael Gaissmar!

Servus Albert,

Looks like you were trying to recreate frozen "Toni" from the film "NORDWAND!" Ouch! Hope your toes recover quickly.

Maybe we need to create an "Alte Muli Fuß Verein." (Old Mule Foot Club) :D

So there are no more places available?

Or do you still need to organise everything?

I remember that one of the guys from Der Windhund spoke to someone about this event for me at War and Peace, and the reply was that it was okay for me to go.
