It had to be feared that there were already several avalarms of alarms in Tyrol on Wednesday morning! A winter athlete was buried in the Hintertux glacier in the Zillertal. The man was dug up by the helicopter team and had to be resuscitated. In Hochgurgl, an emergency call turned out to be a false alarm. In Nauuders, a winter athlete was able to free itself from an avalanche.
Shortly after 9.30 am the first application report of the Tyrol Control Center was released. “Lawe Mountains/Alpine’s Terrain Tux Main Ridge,” said it. The Avalanche output took place in the SO -adited Klaverput under the Smoker Fernerhaus, as the “Krone” could already discover.
Flugetters describe dramatic scenes
A great commitment was immediately launched because a winter athlete was buried. Two skiers had driven into the outskirts in 2500 meters. One of them had driven ahead – he also activated the avalanche. He was spilled. His companion no longer dared to keep driving and made an alarm.
Fluratter Stefan Pichlsberger and an emergency doctor from Helicopter Alpin 5 were able to find it together with the help of LVS device and dig it from a depth of 1.20 meters. “We had to answer the man again. We restored the circulation and flew it in the Innsbruck clinic in a critical condition, “says Pichlsberger in the” Krone “conversation.
The tuxedo, avalanche dogs and the police helicopter Libelle Tirol and the emergency helicopter Alpin 5 were in use.
Aurar alarm also in Nauders
In the late morning there is also avalanche alarm in Nauders (Landeck District). In the SO -Called Zirm Slope, a skier led an avalanche on the open site and was shuffled. Eyewitnesses then immediately raised the alarm. In the meantime, the skier could have free himself. According to Christoph Baumann, board member of the Bergbahnen Nauders, the man was taken care of in the first aid room. A removal with the helicopter was not necessary. He may have gone out of light.
False alarm in Hochgurgl
Also in Hochgurgl (Imst District) there was already an avalanche alarm in the morning. However, as the control center explained, the operation was canceled again, because there was a single track and an exit track at the Avalanche. It was a false alarm, nobody was buried.
Great avalanche hazard on the mountains
After sometimes huge amounts of fresh snow on Tuesday, the avalanche danger on the mountains in large parts of Tyrol has increased enormously. There is a common warning level 4 of the 5.
Danger points hardly recognizable
“The conditions for snow sports away from secure slopes are delicate,” warns the Avalanche -warning service in its current report. “Even individual winter athletes can easily activate avalanches, even big!” Hazard points are overlapping and can hardly be seen in experienced people.
