locally exist deadly fall heights. You have to respect traffic regulations on
roads and watch for traffic. You should participate only if you can judge
alpine dangers correctly even in a race setting. It may be necessary for
you to stop the run according to your own judgement or to take a break in a
safe spot such as a farm building, should for instance forces of nature (e.g.
storm, lightning) demand for it. Dangers to be encountered are, without the
list being complete: vehicular traffic, mountain bikers, thunderstorms,
lightning, slipping, destroyed trails, barbed wire, mud slides, rock fall,
logging activities, bees, vipers, cattle, dogs… which may lead to injuries
and damages including death.
