Safety

Roughly half of the skiers do not complete the tour due to a weather. Have a day or two spare and plan in advance. 

Avalanche equipment, training and experiences needed. Crampon, ice axe, rope (30 m is OK) and basic climbing skills necessary. 

• Avalanche reports and snow levels: Avalanche.report or White risk.

• Weather forecast: Meteo Suisse or MeteoBlue (more optimistic).

• Mountain Rescue: 1415 in Valais region (Air-Glaciers), 1414 (Air-Rescue Rega) elsewhere in Switzerland.
