CUCC's Austria Base Camps

<h1>Base Camp</h1>
The first CUCC expeditions camped courtesy of Fritz Madlmeier (who annually
plied us with free beer on arrival and departure) at his campsite by the
lake in Altaussee, with splendid views of the Trisselberg and very
convenient for the <a href="tollrd.htm">Loser Panoramastra&szlig;e</a>, as
well as various local hostelries.

<p>Eventually we outgrew his rather restricted space and moved to the other
side of Bad Aussee, at
<a href="http://www.aussee.at/staudnwirt/staudnwirtengl.htm">Gasthof Staud'nwirt</a>, by
the road to Grundlsee. Here Hilde and Karin Wilpernig have made us very
welcome for many years, and have provided us with many luxuries including
some office space in 1984 and use of the "Potato Hut" ever since, which has
sported a fridge for cold beer since 1995 ! So vital is this to expo morale
that <a href="smkridge/161/fbland.htm#ealgor">some passage</a> has been named
after it.

It no longer looks like this, having been extended for 1998 -
