In an emergency situation where rescue is no longer possible on the same day, a bivouac on the mountain is often the only option. However, a few basic rules must be followed. Watch the video to find out how to find a suitable bivouac site, how to set up the bivouac and what a bivouac sack should look like.
Important note:
Please note that the tutorials do not replace a practical course. In order to be best prepared for an emergency in the mountains, we recommend that you take part in one of the alpine first aid courses that ORTOVOX offers together with Dani Hornsteiner at three locations in Germany and Austria.
