Grüß Gott Bergkameraden, Mario, your dream is a great idea. Would be nice to have an International Gebirgsjägerschule event....to learn all things Gebirgsjäger...hiking, climbing, mule driving, skiing (summer glaciers).

Servus Bergführer und Bergkameraden, Nice Eispickels! The first Eispickel by Werk Fulpmes could be either pre-war, wartime, or post-war. That's a new "Werk Fulpmes" stamp that I have not seen before. But they are one of the several foundries in the Stubai valley that makes climbing gear......

Grüß Gott Jäger Mario,
