Authorities in Austria have issued a warning to for climbers and hikers to avoid the area surrounding Fluchthorn Mountain after a massive rockslide has made travel through the region dangerous. The rockslide was likely attributed to recent snow melt. Roads were damaged and a cross at the summit of the 11,148ft mountain was destroyed. Thankfully there have been no reports of any injuries.
