Avalanches involving persons with definitely no injuries, i.e. where help is unnecessary, are called “negative avalanches” by Avalanche Headquarters in Tirol. In order to avoid all cost-intensive avalanche operations, we appeal to winter sports enthusiasts to report all negative avalanches to headquarters. Please call Avalanche Emergency tel. no. 140 to report these directly!
Please also report avalanches with injuries and/or persons buried in snow at the Avalanche Emergency tel. no. 140 or at „SOS EU Alp" App on your cell phone.
