The victim deployed his avalanche airbag, the witness made an emergency call and began ascending towards the avalanche cone with his companions. Even before the rescue workers arrived, the witnesses were able to see how the touring skier who had been swept away was freed from the avalanche by two other alpinists, who were apparently not among the victims. “The victim then immediately climbed back up towards Sidanjoch,” the police said.
