The plan was to ski-tour to the top of the Marbachhohe and watch the partial solar eclipse before skiing down in the spring snow. The plan was flawed for 3 reasons: 1. You can't ski-tour if you have taken off your skis and flung them to the ground in a fury. 2. The top of the Marbachhohe cannot be attained, as far as Justine is concerned, with an excrutiating groin sprain 3. The partial solar eclipse, hard to notice at the best of times, is easily missed if one is concentrating on expressing oneself in no uncertain terms. The ski down in the spring snow, however, made it all worth while.
