Müsel

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In the Austrian Alpine region, a Müsel is an approx. 1 m long gap in wood. The pick (plural: pick ) is the longer, whole trunk.

These relatively short cereals could also drift down into the valley in the smaller mountain rivers. Where the amount of water was not sufficient for the regular wood drift , so-called Klausen dams were built. By suddenly opening the weirs and the resulting torrent of water, the cereals were then washed down into the valley and stopped with rakes at the destination and fished out of the water. They were used as firewood .
