Snow slab broke off above Pripravniška Gully
8.04.2011
Today morning, two properly equipped climbers were ascending Pripravniška Gully to Mala Mojstrovka. Just before they exited the gully, a snow slab broke loose on them and they slid down the slope approximately 300 m. One is lightly, the other more seriously injured.
Mountain rescuers from Kranjska Gora first transported the more seriously injured to Jesenice hospital with the help of a Slovenian Army helicopter, and then the lightly injured.
