Viele gehen am Berg bis zum absoluten Limit: „Und wenn gar nichts mehr geht, wählen wir den Notruf“ [premium]
Full story
The Alpine Club has observed that many people push themselves to their absolute limits while hiking in the mountains. Some individuals only call emergency services when they are completely unable to continue. Turning back is often not seen as an option by these hikers. This issue comes after two people were recently left behind on a mountain. Proper tour planning and taking responsibility for others are necessary. The choice of a hiking partner is also an important factor.
Umkehren sei für viele keine Option, beobachtet der Alpenverein, nachdem jüngst wieder zwei Menschen am Berg zurückgelassen wurden. Es brauche gute Tourenplanung und Verantwortung füreinander. Wichtig sei auch die Auswahl des Partners.
