A few days ago, the

Brauneck

.

The man complained of severe pain.

The mountain rescue team provided the man with painkillers and provided first aid.

The other helpers meanwhile planned the further course of the mission.

Brauneck: man falls 40 meters down - rescue helicopter Christoph Murnau had to move out

It was not possible for the rescue helicopter Christoph Murnau to pick up the patient directly at the crash site.

Therefore, the mountain rescuers had to transport the man a little

through rough terrain

, "which turned out to be very difficult due to the high weight of the injured person," said the mountain rescue service.

Finally, however, the 65-year-old was pulled into the helicopter and flown to the Murnau accident clinic.

to deal with

two missions in a row

.

In the early afternoon, an

exhausted person was reported above the Stie-Alm who was stuck in the rocky terrain.

The head of operations from the standby Bad Tölz coordinated the operation during which four Lenggries mountain rescuers were deployed.

A

55-year-old, accompanied by three other women, slipped on the snow-covered path from Latschenkopf to Stie-Alm

and fell about 80 meters over steep grass.

But she was still

lucky in the misfortune

: According to the mountain rescue service, a crevice prevented the woman from falling another 30 meters over rocky terrain.

Fortunately, the 55-year-old was unharmed.

With a special mountain rescue belt, the hiker was roped into flatter terrain and led back to the hut.

Later a mountain rescuer accompanied them to the cable car and took them down to the valley in the gondola.

Immediately afterwards, another mission took place in

Jachenau

.

Two people (40 and 48 years of age)

climbed

their dog

from the rifle house in the direction of the Hirschhörndl.

At the height of the Pfundalm the weather got worse and the two no longer dared to go down alone.

Three members of the mountain rescue team climbed up to the hikers and helped them descend.

A mountain rescuer carried the severely hypothermic dog into the valley in a backpack.
