Emergency notification via telephone. The mobile phone is an important tool for alerting the mountain rescue service in an emergency. In Austria, you dial the Alpine emergency number 140. The alarm can also be raised via the European emergency number 112.
If the mobile phone has no reception, you can switch it off and turn it up again and then enter the number 112 instead of the PIN. The more precise the information given, the faster the rescue teams will reach the injured person.

The latest (generalised) avalanche bulletin can be found here:
https://avalanche.report/bulletin/latest
This report provides a general risk assessment for avalanches for a wide region and should be used as a guide only. The latest information posted by the lift company should be adhered to. Avalanches are an ever-present risk, and the best way to avoid them is to ski on marked ski pistes rather than ski routes or off-piste. Skiers and snowboarders leaving the marked pistes (irrespective of the avalanche level) are at increased danger. They should always carry the recommended avalanche rescue equipment (beacon, airbag, shovel, and probe) and always be accompanied by a qualified local guide.
Please be aware that lunches and apres ski take place on the mountain. Alcohol consumption will immediately imperil safety on the mountain. Those guests who feel they require assistance should contact the event organiser, who will organise an alternative non-ski route back to the valley.
Please ensure that you do not ski alone. Small groups should always let others know where they plan to ski.
