Top of couloir

Couloir after the glide

Avalance deposit

Tourenbeschreibung

An avalanche from the top of a couloir triggered by a skier on a descent. The skier managed to ski out of it to the side, but the avalanche took his dog and buried him 500m lower on a flat terrain. Probing for the dog was unsuccessful and the rescue was finished in the dark. The dog carries a collar with the owner's mobile number. If the dog is found, the owner kindly requests a notification via that mobile number - the same number is used for this post.

Schnee- und Lawinensituation

Fresh snow 10-20cm on a compact surface, a couloir facing SSE, cca 45 deg steep on average. Gliding snow triggered from the top made a layer of fresh snow to glide from the sides into the center of the couloir. The snow that accumulated in the center grew bigger and bigger. The slide stopped on an almost flat terrain cca 500m lower.

The dog survived w/o any injuries. Most likely he managed to dig out on his own in the following 24h hours and descended towards Döllach where he was found and taken to a police station. The owner would like to express his gratitude to Sebastian, who found the dog, and the Polizeiinspektion Heiligenblut staff.

Great news! When I went on tour with my dog I always worried when she ran too close to snow cornices or into steep slopes. Maybe dogs should also carry avalanche beacons.
