ASPECTS – STORIES FROM AVALANCHE TERRAIN

Story | Ep. 04: Along for the Ride

We often measure risk by probability and consequence. But what happens when we don’t have the full scope on either? How do you manage risk and place trust in unfamiliar terrain? In the latest episode of our Aspects series, Canadian Katie Combaluzier shares her story about a tour during a ski trip to the French Alps that changed her life forever.

Concerns the Alugator Ride 3.0 Hoe and the Alugator Ride SE (as part of the Barryvox packages)

RECALL NOTICE FOR A CALL FOR INSPECTION: SHOVEL LOCKING MECHANISM

As a brand, Mammut has stood for quality, safety, and innovation since 1862. To keep this promise, we continuously check our materials and products. Through valuable consumer feedback, it has come to our attention that the locking mechanism of two shovel models could be compromised in some cases, due to a material error of a plastic component supplier. This leads to the fact that some shovels might face difficulties being assembled. We inspected 100% of our stock immediately after receiving the feedback. The inspection confirmed that solely the Alugator Ride 3.0 Hoe as well as Alugator Ride SE models might be affected. The latter is part of the Barryvox Package, the Barryvox S Package, and the Barryvox Package Tour. Only products produced as of November 2021, might face those issues.

Story | In the heart of Catalonia, at the foothills of the Pyrenees, lies Oliana. A limestone crag perched above its namesake village attracts climbing enthusiasts from all over the world. This climbing hotspot is home to some of the most challenging and famous sport climbs. Also Chris Frick is under Oliana's spell. Except he's on a different mission than other climbers - Chris rebolts climbing routes. His project: the rebolting of the iconic Mind Control route. A matter close to his heart that took a dramatic turn of events.

MIND CONTROL – MORE THAN A CLIMBING ROUTE

On January 6, 2022, Chris Frick sends an email to Mammut. It's a matter very close to his heart: Rebolting the route Mind Control in Oliana, Spain. For this, he needs equipment such as bolts, fixed quickdraws, and a lot more. Mammut is instantly on board. Like Chris, it is also essential to Mammut to ensure the safest possible climbing experience for all and to help keep iconic routes such as the Mind Control accessible and preserved.

ASPECTS - STORIES FROM THE AVALANCHE TERRAIN

Story | Ep. 03: Four meters deep

When Tim Banfield turned on his avalanche transceiver to find his friend Michelle Kadatz buried four meters beneath him, he realized this rescue was not going to follow the textbook.

Story | Whether it's an unexpected storm that causes poor lighting conditions, a dense fog hindering a rescue attempt, or heavy snowdrifts that make orientation difficult. In the mountains, weather conditions often change rapidly, becoming a hazard in summer and winter alike. See and be seen: It's no surprise that the issue of mountain sport's safety is often also a matter of color. But when did orange make its debut on the mountain?

SAFETY ORANGE – A COLOR THAT CONQUERS MOUNTAIN SPORTS

When it comes to safety, orange, especially, is considered the color of choice. "Safety Orange", as the bright and often neon fluorescent orange color typically used in high-risk situations is called, is employed in a wide range of conditions - from safety clothing to snow fences. The reason is simple: compared to other colors, "Safety Orange" is easily visible to the human eye even under adverse lighting conditions. Ever since Mammut, the mountain-sports brand, introduced its "Eiger Extreme" mountaineering collection more than 20 years ago, the color has become indispensable in mountain sports apparel. It is also a highly visible orientation aid for safety products such as avalanche equipment.

Story | Ep. 02: The Call

After years of physical training and planning for their record-breaking project, La Liste: Everything or Nothing, professional skiers, Jérémie Heitz and Sam Anthamatten, arrived in Pakistan to find sketchy avalanche conditions on one of their planned routes. Learn what they decided to do and how pro athletes navigate safety hazards in the high alpine.

Story | Ep. 01: One more lap

In the mountains, every decision matters and every avalanche has a lesson. As a community of snow enthusiasts, we can use these stories to learn how to be safer going forward.

Story | This summer, Mammut and Switzerland Tourism are taking women to the magical peaks of Switzerland's 4000-meter mountains.

FASCINATION ALPINE TOUR – THE SAFE WAY TO THE FIRST SUMMIT

The breathtaking Swiss mountains, massive glaciers, steep flanks, and narrow ridges – an alpine tour offers a unique mountain experience. At the same time, it requires specific preparation and safe behavior on the mountain. As part of the "100% Women Peak Challenge" initiated by Switzerland Tourism, Mammut accompanies female alpinists and beginners as they ascend to new heights and shows them the safe way to reach the snow-covered peaks.
