The Steilhang Hut foundations are complete. The excavating crew is backfilling today (and the next few days). This place will have a large deck and a small, indoor dining/warming area - all with spectacular views. If you enjoy the high alpine environment, bratwurst and beer, you are going to love the Steilhang Hut.
According to Wikipedia, a Steilhang is a German geoscientific term for a steep mountainside or hillside with an average slope greater than 30 degrees. We call the steep pitch just after entering the Upper East Wall Gate Steilhang.
