Again! After the delicate rescue operation at Snowfall for German Alpinists in the Tyrolean Kühtai on Monday there was another alarm on Tuesday – this time at the Zugspitze. A German couple had completely misjudged the circumstances – the mountain rescue was again demanded.
Snowfall, ice cream and partially dense fog ensured that the German couple progressed on the demanding “Stoppuller”, which leads from the Wiener-Neustädter-Hütte near Ehrwald (Reutte District) towards the top. Around 10 a.m. the two alarm.
Loyal conditions for demanding tour
“In the morning the Alpinists were broken up by the Wiener-Neustädter-Hütte over the ‘Stopsel Puller to the top’, says an Ehrwald Mountain-Redder. Of course, the duo had ignored the weather forecast or was completely misunderstood. Because bad weather was predicted all day before the tour with Snow and Snow and Snow and Snow. -like passages.
End station in the snow at 2600 meters
“Nothing worked in about 2600 meters – they got stuck,” says the Mountain Rescuer. The Germans no longer found the completely snow -driven route, and the icy land and fog made it impossible for them. The psyche also caused major problems for mountaineers in these circumstances.
Climbed from the top to the couple
Ehrwalder and Lermooser Mountain rescuers brought the Tyrolean Zugspitzbahn to the top of the highest mountain in Germany (2962 meters). “We are then in the case of unfavorable conditions in the snow from top to the couple. On the rope we are then back to the top with them,” says the emergency services. The unharmed but somewhat hypothermal Germans were then brought into the valley by train.
Tour planning bath
“The couple lacked experience, the tour plan was bad, especially with regard to the weather,” summarized the Mountain Rescuers. Thanks to the support of the Tyrolean Zugspitzbahn, everyone was back in the valley around 13:30.
