I searched the articles, and all I could find was a reference to the rescue crew had signs of life when they went up that morning (no actual time given) but they could not land close to her, had to deploy crew onto the glacier area so they could hike up. They reached her after 10 am, and there...
I just realized that the time frame that is being put out by the prosecution is the timeframe we can likely count on. This timeframe is based on all the evidence they collected, including the phones and smart watches they wore. From this article: Autriche : accusé d’avoir laissé sa compagne...
This is a helpful read about hypothermia, in conjunction with this case. https://www.ndtv.com/health/hypothermia-death-on-austrian-peak-what-cold-exposure-really-does-to-the-body-9770207
Thank you for adding your thoughts here. You bring up some good points. My hope is that there are many witnesses who will be called to the trial to illuminate what happened and who both Kerstin and TP were, as individuals and together.
I agree with your point about researching in advance...
IF they had really wanted to climb and Ski they would have taken the Normal route. There are many videos of people doing this. They ski across a glacier and up to the base of the rocky climbing area. When they climb back down from the summit, they ski back across the glacier. It saves a lot...
I think they will be important witnesses for this case. Only they have been up on mountains and lived to tell about it as women. We also need to hear from male climbing partners. How did he behave under stress or if they questioned things?
(Snipped by me for focus)
Is it possible to find a photo from the webcams of this ski-route in the winter with snow cover? Wondering what it looked like on Jan 18-19, and if they jumped on it because of a great snow cover for skiing? (Still doesn't explain his lack of ski gear....)
Studlgrat route currently closed due to massive rockfall that took out a large part of the route that had cables and other climbing assists. Rock on the Großglockner: Popular Stüdlgrat closed for mountaineers – Archyde
Even if Kerstin was the driving force behind doing this route (and I don't believe that), TP did not save her when things went bad. They had the equipment and the ability to save her. That did not happen. Why?
I wasn't clear that my purpose of posting the guide website's description of the Studlgrat was to point out how they were "glossing over" a bit. I could see how Kerstin looked at that and wanted to do it, or TP showed her something like that to say how she could do it with what they've done...
I believe the first choice is the most damning. Picking Studlgrat in January.
He trained on this mountain and specifically on this route. He KNOWS what it takes to climb the route. He KNOWS her experience and ability. He had no business.
Even if she pressured him to do it. Even if she...
