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..
