Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the half reduction of the widow’s accident insurance pension for a hazardous snowshoe tour was lawful.
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. The insured and his companion left the marked route in clearly dangerous avalanche conditions without adequate preparation or equipment, constituting at least a relative hazardous undertaking.
Extrahierte Begründung
In substantial avalanche danger, they should have stayed on the marked route. Their off-route descent into a steep, unprotected slope exposed them to a particularly great risk that materialized. The alleged difference between a cornice collapse and a snow slab release was immaterial.
