The Wall

Our real destination on the day we happened to pass the avalanche:
The dam wall of the Schlegeis reservoir in the Zillertal (Tyrol, Austria). With a height of 130 m and a width of 725 m, it is the largest dam wall in Tyrol. The reservoir was built in 1965-1972 and contributes to Tyrol's electricity requirements being covered 100% by hydroelectric power.

Unser eigentliches Ziel an dem Tag, als wir zufällig an der Lawine vorbeikamen:
Die Staumauer des Schlegeis-Stausees im Zillertal (Tyrol, Austria). Mit 130 m Höhe und 725m Breite ist sie die größte Staumauer in Tirol. Der 1965-1972 erbaute Stausee und trägt dazu bei, dass Tirol seinen Strombedarf zu 100% aus Wasserkraft deckt.
