Fatal accident in the mountains – girlfriend hoped 29-year-old was still alive

Date:

She hoped everything would be okay. Unfortunately, this hope was not fulfilled. A young woman was worried one night about a 29-year-old Garstener from Upper Austria, who had not come home from a mountain trip. Then there was the sad certainty.

A 29-year-old from Garsten wanted to make a mountain trip or crossing from Bosruck in Spital am Pyhrn on Tuesday. When he did not appear at the agreed meeting point in the evening and could not be reached by telephone, the partner reported the missing via the emergency call around 8 p.m.

Major search for missing persons
Alpine police officers from Kirchdorf and mountain rescuers from Spital am Pyhrn, Windischgarsten, Admont and Selzthal and firefighters embarked on a transnational search, but had to stop during the night.

Fell 250 yards to his death
On Wednesday, helicopters were also able to take off and the police helicopter from Graz discovered the mountain climber who died in an accident at the southern foot of the Frauenmauer. The 29-year-old slipped on the descent and fell 250 meters to his death.
