SECURITY

Please, take care and be aware of the following:

Especially in the  summer season danger might come from:

  • traffic:
  • many fervent climbing trackers exploit this time of year; correspondingly high is the frequency. Pay special attention to timing, as delays from co-climbers may occur. Also regard others; unleashing of stones may cause detrimental effects. Protect yourself from falling stones.
  • weather:
  • Tendency for thunderstorms is high in summer, a weather change might occur literally in minutes.
  • clothing/food supply:
  • sun protection and adequate drink supply are essential. Summery conditions might tempt you into reducing backpack size. But a quick weather change in alpine altitudes will show how a wind jacket/pocket mac is an absolute must on any tour.
  • Before you venture out inquire about actual weather conditions at the pit-face..
