Peter, the nestling of the third generation has always been fascinated by the latest technological achievements. So it is not surprising that the Gletscherblick was one of the first businesses with Internet access. And of course, we googled around wildly in the infinite net. Peter was amazed when he entered Leah Hirsig, his great-aunt, into the search function. What he already knew was that Leah Hirsig had emigrated to America with her mother in her childhood, which was considered very unusual at that time. However, Peter did not know that Leah Hirsig was in close contact with the occultist Aleister Crowly.

She and her older sister Alma were fascinated by the occult during their studies. This interest led them in the spring of 1918 to pay a visit to Aleister Crowley, who at that time lived in the Greenwich Village neighborhood of Manhattan . Crowley and Hirsig felt an immediate and instinctive connection. Leah asked him to paint her as a "dead soul," and indeed Crowley produced several portraits of her. In 1919 she was consecrated Babalon or "Scarlet Woman" and given the name Alostrael , "the Body of God." Later she also helped Crowley to found the Abbey of Thelema in Cefalù, Italy. Peter and the whole family were amazed at what a crazy life Leah must have led. Nobody had heard a word about her. Leah had returned to Meiringen as an elderly lady and had always been described by everyone as a distinguished, but also strict woman. She never let her previous crazy, wild life show through in any way.
