I'm compiling a short list of emergency telephone numbers for inclusion on an ESC item. ?Any comments on the following, I'm happy to receive suggestions of more effective numbers for ski touring emergencies, errors & omisions etc:

Europe             112
Switzerland      144 or 1414    (Can someone confirm 112 works in Switzerland, fortunately I've never had to find out for myself?)
UK & Ireland     999
USA & Canada   911

For all of the above I'd be happy receive feedback that the numbers concerned have been effective in real emergencies.

regards

Dan
