On Friday 2 tourers made a ski tour from "Preiner Gschaid" to the summit of Rax. On the descent they lost contact due to dense fog. One of them reached the Karl-Ludwighaus and was able to contact his colleague by telephone, who reported that he was in an emergency situation and could neither go back nor forth. Thereupon he informed the emergency call centre via the emergency telephone in the KLH. Around 14:00 a search was initiated. The search had to be aborted around 20:30 due to bad weather and darkness. The tourer, who made the emergency call, was accompanied by the mountain rescue into the valley. He remained unharmed during the incident. On Saturday morning the search was continued, the missing man could unfortunately only be found dead at noon.
