Due to the dryness, the most recently warned of the risk of forest fire in Subland in Tyrolo – in the Kufstein district, smoking and inflamed fire in the forest was even forbidden in the Kufstein district. A fire broke out on Thursday afternoon over the Hechtstein in Kufstein – worse things can also be prevented thanks to the smart walkers!
Around 5 p.m., attentive hikers raised the alarm after discovering the fire in the Hechtsee in the steep forest area above the walk. Especially happy with the situation: the constant drought and strong wind preferred the spread of the fire.
Walkers and walkers with a creative idea
But instead of continuing or just waiting for the alarmed fire brigade, passed by all their courage and started with the first extinguishing measures. The magical word was: Dog Droppings Sacks!
The helpers filled them with water from the Pike Lake. The prams then formed a kind of human chain in the forest and always handed over the “extinguishing bags”. Until the fire brigade arrived on the site!
The emergency services have set up a equipment and personnel shelter in the Visitor parking park of the Hechtsees. With a loading vehicle that is specially intended for such cases, they were quickly transported bags, fire extinguishers and clangery tools over the narrow Hechseeweg near the site. The first fire -sensitive attack was then started.
As a result, hose tubes were then placed – and with fire water from the adhesive, the forest floor could eventually be irrigated and the fire was eventually removed.
Fire brigade thanks creative walkers
The Brandbrigade thanks the helpers. “Special thanks go to the attentive hikers who, before we arrive with water -filled dog step bags, put the first extinguishing measures creative, fast and courageous!”
