  • An Ascent of the Watzmann Ostwand
    An Ascent of the Watzmann Ostwand R ic h a rd N. Me y e r T H E Watzmann, an 8900-foot peak in the Bavarian Alps, domi­ nates the ancient little town of Berchtesgaden as majestically as the Matterhorn does Zermatt. Many thousands of Americans admire it every year, for Berchtesgaden is a major recreation and vacation center for all the American troops and civilians and their families stationed in Europe. The posh Berchtesgadener Hof, which only a few years ago echoed to the “Heil Hitler” greetings of the Third Reich’s rulers, is now only one of several hotels still under requisi­ tion by American authorities. There is never a dull moment at Berchtesgaden. Entertainment abounds: all kinds of sports; visits to the bleak, bombed-out resi­ dences of former Nazi V IP’s; American movies and night clubs; snack bars and real bars. In particular, the American authorities have tried hard to rouse an interest in climbing. The challenge of the peak is always there, an interesting and steep scramble of seven or eight hours with an overnight stay at a comfortable Alpine Club house; and there is a “Watzmann Club” which issues certificates to Amer­ icans who make the climb. The tour is really worth while, with a fine view and close-ups of magnificent, rugged mountain scenery, not equalled on many a higher and more difficult peak. Despite these well-publicized attractions, the thousands of Amer­ icans in the valley rarely lift their eyes to the hills. I have been on the Watzmann three times by different routes; and, except my wife and three friends who once accompanied me, I have never seen another American on the mountain or at the cabin.

  • Belay Device Recommendation for Single Pitch Climbing
    Belay Device Recommendation for Single Pitch Climbing The German Alpine Club (DAV) recommends assisted braking belay devices for belaying single pitch routes in climbing gyms and outdoors. Assisted braking devices offer a safety advantage as compared to manual belay devices. There are different models of assisted braking belay devices on the market. They all have one characteristic in common: In case of a fall they pinch the rope. This is how they assist the belayer’s hand strength. Whether using an assisted braking device or a manual device (e.g. Tube/Munter Hitch): every belay device has specific handling characteristics. Only if you know and are familiar with these characteristics can you belay correctly and avoid errors of application. Qualified training and practice are essential. Crucial issues when belaying with any device: - Always keep a controlling hand on the rope - Practice your device handling before you start belaying - Practice holding falls - Consider the weight difference between climber and belayer - Consider the amount of hand strength required to hold a fall when choosing a device - Choose the right spot for belaying, in particular when the climber is still near the ground - Reduce the amount of slack rope to the utmost, in particular when belaying near the ground - Constantly pay attention What is the advantage of assisted braking belay devices? Especially in gyms and at highly frequented crags, distraction is a serious problem. Inattentiveness may quickly lead to a severe accident. Assisted braking belay devices increase the chance of preventing a fall to the ground despite belaying errors. In particular at artificial climbing walls the route of the rope is often straight so that rope friction is minimal, therefore a large part of the energy of the fall ends up on the belayer.

  • Safety on High-Altitude Alpine Tours 10 Recommendations by the German Alpine Club (DAV)
    Safety on high-altitude alpine tours 10 Recommendations by the German Alpine Club (DAV) Mountaineering in high altitudes offers great chances to experience nature, sense of community and adventures. The following recommendations serve to effectively meet the manifold alpine dangers. In rock and ice climbing courses you may learn practical basics, the necessary experience has to be gathered step by step. 1. Healthy and fit in the mountains Alpine tours lead you into high-altitudes and require lots of endurance! The intense strain on the cardiovascular system as well as muscles and joints requires a healthy body and realistic self-assessment. Avoid time pressure and choose the right speed so that nobody in the group is strained to the limit. 2. Consider height adjustment From 2500 meters onwards your organism needs time to adjust. A slow ascent and a moderate increase of your sleeping altitude are decisive. The best means to counteract symptoms of altitude sickness like headache, dizziness or nausea is to descent. 3. Plan your tour carefully Maps, guidebooks, the internet and experts inform you on trip duration, difference in altitude, difficulty and current conditions. Pay special attention to the weather forecast as thunderstorm, snow, wind and cold increase the risk of accidents. Plan alternative routes! Get information on national mountain rescue emergency hotlines (Euro-emergency hotline 112). 4. Travel in small groups Abilities, experience, motives and the size of the group are decisive for the choice of your tour. The ideal group size is 2 to 6, more people are a risk factor! We recommend you not to go alone.

  • Press Release
    Press Release 28 November 2017 23 Mountaineering Federations united European Union of Mountaineering Associations (EUMA) Founded in Munich Last weekend 23 mountaineering federations from as many countries founded the Eu- ropean Union of Mountaineering Associations (EUMA). The foundation assembly took place on 25 November in the Alpine Museum of the German Alpine Club in Munich. “This is an important day for the European mountaineering community”, said the newly elected and visibly delighted president Roland Stierle shortly after the meeting. “We now are able to pool the interests of European mountaineers and powerfully rep- resent them.” The EUMA considers topics related to mountaineering infrastructure and safety as well as nature conservation to be its core tasks, with the overall focus on mountaineering as popular sports. One Year of Preparation Different ideas and proposals had been developed for several years, before an interna- tional working group with representatives from eight federations1 was commissioned to create the prerequisites for the foundation. A year later, the working group presented a concept of the new association, draft articles of association and a financing concept. The result is remarkable: The foundation assembly, chaired by the president of the German Alpine Club, Josef Klenner, conducted smoothly, result-oriented and in a good and positive atmosphere. This is not to be taken for granted – considering the involve- ment of 23, in many respects very different, federations from all parts of Europe. A Strong European Voice for Mountaineers The delegates chose Belgium as EUMA’s domicile, which may not necessarily be an ob- vious location for a mountaineering association at first sight.
