Gimme some Schnapps!

i think i like krampus
Christmas is much more fun when we can terrorize young children with beast demons who will throw them in the river for misbehaving. It's so German.
I’m there, it’s canceled....
Krampus, like Santa Claus, lives in all of us. It cannot be cancelled.
Not gonna lie, Krampus scared me as a small boy
Every hard core skier should visit Gastein in Austria someday, the place has a rich old film of skibum and tradition around it.
It's on a train line that can be part of a killer trip through the Alps down to the Dolomites: hit Bad Gastein (have a drink at the Hexenhausl), train to Mallnitz, do the day trip from Moeltaller Glacier back to Sport Gastien, then train down to Inichen, then taxi to Cortina.

One day, I'll write down the routes I know. It's really nuts how easy it is to train it through the Alps and ski.
Here's Mallnitz, right off the train after it goes through a tunnel from the North, starting in Gasteinertal:

After skiing there a day, take a taxi to Moetaller Gletscher and ski the 5000+ vertical feet back to Gasteinertal
Time for Krampus stoke....
Krampus Nutcracker!

Have a relative who is in her 90’s at this point. She is German and has always had a certain joie de vivre but part of that includes a really acerbic wit and an affinity for terrorizing children.
She has the time of her life telling little kids about Krampus to fully chilling effect. It’s pretty fun to witness. Only a true German can pull that off.
Keeping it real, Suzie!

Our annual downtown Christmas lighting/stroll/parade is Saturday night, I really wish a Krampus would show up.

Jesus why does that pic have to be so big? Anyways i'll chip in $10
I lived in a small town in Bavaria for a few years. Krampus is legit! Multiple Krampus' were running around, scaring the kids, all hopped up on suds. My boys ages 8&9 were shitting their pants. Need to bring this tradition across the pond.
