Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better!
Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Basically a Paraglider took off from the top of the Hohe Salve and had a fatal collision with the Hopfgarten gondola, minor injuries for a couple of passengers.

@munich_irish
, it is paywalled.
But a bit unlucky, got the whole mountain to fly around and they hit a gondola?
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Using 12 foot ladder and then Google translate:
The woman from the Munich district drifts off an 1,800 meter high mountain for unknown reasons while paragliding. After hitting a gondola, she falls into the depths.
A paraglider pilot from the Munich area crashed into a cable car gondola in the Austrian mountains and died. As the Tyrolean police reported, the 65-year-old woman started from the summit of the Hohe Salve near Hopfgarten in Brixental. While paragliding from the approximately 1,800 meter high mountain, she drifted for an unknown reason and got into the area of a gondola lift.
The umbrella lay over the cables of the cable car. The pilot crashed into a gondola and fell into the depths. According to police , the woman from the Munich district was fatally injured. Two passengers in the affected gondola were slightly injured. The broadcaster ORF had previously reported online about the accident.

An accident long waiting to happen, sadly.
Only good news it didnt bring down the gondola as well. Surely there should be an exclusion zone for paragliding etc around and cablecars, gondola and chairlifts
Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

That is the second fatality with a paraglider in very close proximity to me involving women from the Munich area. RIP
