Two 26-year-olds had planned a challenging mountain tour in Upper Carinthia. However, a small, damp tuft of grass caused an alpine accident.

On Monday, two 26-year-old friends from Germany undertook a mountain tour: from the Sadnighaus, they wanted to climb via the Sadnigscharte to the Schobertörl, then over the Hirtenkopf (2606 m) and the Striedenkopf (2602 m) to the Makernispitze (2640 m).

The planned route leads over a pathless ridge. Between Hirtenkopf and Striedenkopf, one of the two slipped on the wet grass and fell about 100 meters over steep, rocky terrain to the east.

His friend immediately made an emergency call and climbed down to the injured man. The fallen man was responsive and his friend provided first aid until the arrival of the C7 emergency helicopter team.

The 26-year-old was rescued by the helicopter team using a rope and flown to Lienz Regional Hospital with undetermined injuries. His friend descended into the valley on his own.
