The mountain rescuers warn: Major avalanche danger in the Bucegi Massif

Prahova Mountain Rescue issued a warning on Monday regarding the major avalanche danger in the Bucegi Massif, following the tragic accident last weekend when Lieutenant Colonel Dan Colniceanu died after being caught in an avalanche. The rescuers emphasize that the rising temperatures have led to the instability of the snow layer, increasing the risk of avalanches. They recommend that tourists avoid high-altitude hiking trails and steep valleys, highlighting that the mountain is an unpredictable environment. Caution is essential to avoid dangerous situations, and the responsibility of tourists can make the difference between life and death.
