Alpine climbers observed a rope team ascending the "Wildes Gamseck" on the Rax in the afternoon. Since they were moving very slowly, they suspected problems and made an emergency call. At first, no contact could be made with the people, so our team observed the rope team using binoculars. After they descended via the "Zahmes Gamseck", they could be contacted. According to them, they had no problems and the operation could be terminated. 11 members of our local office were on standby.
