MileKing: in my alps I learned, once the avallenge is rolling - don't try to stop it - either never join the risky people by staying far away from "the topic", or try to avoid it at the last second by stepping/surfing/skiing aside or if you get caught, try to stay on top of it (controle it and yourself).
Much later - in summer - try to (re-)arrange the endangered zones in a way that the avallenge will not be a repeated catastroph by providing obstacles (trees, artificel fences, etc).
