Excerpt of the author's personal impressions of the Schneefernerhaus:

"In the con­text of the mas­ter's semi­nar “Is Win­ter still Com­ing?”, I had the op­por­tunity to talk about glaci­er poetry with the stu­dents on site and then stay a little longer on my own. The poem was writ­ten dur­ing a two-day stay in Janu­ary 2025. I sat on the fresh­ly glazed ter­race with my heart pounding due to the alti­tude and watched the hustle and bustle fur­ther down the moun­tain, where the ski slope be­gins. The mys­teri­ous cho­reog­raphy of the snowplows and the bru­tally rush­ing wind were par­ticu­larly mem­ora­ble."
