Near the Ötzi site
Conditions underestimated: trio rescued from the mountain
Because they underestimated the conditions, a trio from Germany had to be rescued by the "Libelle" police helicopter below the Finailspitze in the municipality of Vent (Imst district) on Saturday.
The trio - consisting of a 19-year-old and two 18-year-old Germans - had set off on a high alpine mountain hike from the Martin-Busch-Hütte on Saturday. They wanted to hike via the Ötzi discovery site to the Finailspitze at 3,514 meters.
However, the group had to abandon their plan at around 3 pm. A good 100 metres north of the summit, the young men realized that they had underestimated the conditions and the high alpine terrain. They therefore no longer dared to descend independently.
Finally, they made an emergency call. The trio was rescued unharmed by the "Libelle" police helicopter.
