Just below the Karl-Ludwig-Haus, a ski tourer suddenly felt chest pains and collapsed lifeless shortly afterwards. Despite immediate reanimation by fellow tourers and subsequently by the crew of the Christophorus 15 rescue helicopter, the ski tourer died. As it was not possible to recover the ski tourer due to the windy conditions, it had to be transported with akja over the Karlgraben and then to the Preiner Gscheid. Thanks also to the assistance of a member of the Reichenau mountain rescue team, the Alpine police, the Libelle helicopter of the Federal Ministry of the Interior and the Christophorus 15 rescue helicopter.
