A Czech mountaineer has died after falling in the Austrian Alps

A 21-year-old Czech climber died after falling from a height of 3,564 meters on the mountain Grosses Wiesbachhorn in Austria's High Tauern range. The incident occurred on Tuesday, according to an announcement by the local mountain rescue service in Kaprun, citing the agency APA. The climber apparently slipped while crossing a snow field, while his climbing partner safely descended. The accident took place in the rock outcrop area Unterer Fochezkopf, located at around 3,000 meters altitude. His partner went down to the Heinrich-Schwaiger-Haus mountain hut and called for mountain rescue. A search operation began around 5 PM but was initially complicated by hail. Fourteen rescuers participated, and the body was eventually recovered by a helicopter.
