Depending on the situation and your personal preference, you should also decide whether everyone is going to carry all their own safety equipment in their backpacks or whether it\u2019s going to be divided among individuals in the group.<\/p>\n[divider line_type=”no-line” custom_height=”30″]\n
Both approaches have advantages and disadvantages. If you carry your own (1-person) bivy bag and first aid kit with you, then you can access them if, for example, you\u2019re suddenly on your own after taking a wrong turn somewhere, or you\u2019re on the summit ridge on your own, while the others are back at the ski depot.<\/p>\n
If you split a bigger selection of first aid equipment and (2-3-person) bivy bags among the group members, then some will have less to carry and can pack a rope or similar as well.[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” top_padding=”20″ text_align=”left”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”padding-1-percent” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” column_border_width=”2px” column_border_color=”#ffdd00″ column_border_style=”dashed” enable_border_animation=”true” bg_image_animation=”none” enable_animation=”true” animation=”fade-in” delay=”300″][vc_column_text]Tipp:\u00a0<\/strong>Before the start of winter, make sure you replace any out-of-date bandages etc. put new batteries in your headlamp and check your bivy bag isn\u2019t affected by mildew.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”80px” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” bg_color=”#ffffff” scene_position=”center” top_padding=”50″ constrain_group_1=”yes” bottom_padding=”50″ text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” id=”correction-program” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none” enable_animation=”true” animation=”fade-in” delay=”300″][vc_column_text]\n Tip:\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>Making <\/span>sure others in your ski touring group have up-to-date transceivers, shovels and probes, and know how to use them properly, is in your own best interest too.

In an ideal scenario, it would mean there\u2019s no need to search, probe and dig for victims because they are visible on the surface of the avalanche once it draws to a stop. The effectiveness of airbags is well documented and significantly reduces fatality from burial in an avalanche (from 22% to 11%; ref. Haegeli et. al., 2014). How well an airbag works depends, among other things, on the terrain and whether it is triggered at the correct time. Doing this properly is something that has to be practiced. Which is where electronic fan-based airbag systems have the edge. These do not require cartridges to be replaced or sent away. It\u2019s only the battery that needs to be charged (and that\u2019s only required after multiple deployments).<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” top_padding=”40″ text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_custom_heading text=”Produktinfo PIEPS” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”none” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”column_reverse” column_direction_phone=”column_reverse” bg_color=”#ffffff” scene_position=”center” top_padding=”50″ bottom_padding=”30″ top_padding_tablet=”80″ top_padding_phone=”60″ text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” id=”correction-program” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”padding-4-percent” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”padding-2-percent” column_padding_position=”all” constrain_group_4=”yes” constrain_group_6=”yes” background_color_opacity=”0.1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”2\/5″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”1px” column_border_color=”#6f6f6f” column_border_style=”dashed” bg_image_animation=”none” enable_animation=”true” animation=”fade-in” delay=”300″][image_with_animation image_url=”3622″ animation=”Fade In” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”” img_link_large=”yes” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default”][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”padding-5-percent” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” background_color=”#6f6f6f” background_color_opacity=”0.1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”3\/5″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none” enable_animation=”true” animation=”fade-in” delay=”300″][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” text_align=”left”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_custom_heading text=”PIEPS First-Aid” font_container=”tag:h3|font_size:45|text_align:left|color:%236f6f6f|line_height:1.2″ use_theme_fonts=”yes” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.pieps.com%2Fen%2Fproduct%2Fpieps-first-aid”][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”35″][vc_column_text]The\u00a0PIEPS FIRST AID PRO<\/a>\u00a0is a kit for administering first aid on the move.
