Czech climber dies in High Tatras

A fifty two-year old Czech mountain climber has died in the High Tatra mountains in Slovakia. The man and his colleague were heading to Tupá mountain on Saturday afternoon without being secured. When the man failed to reach the top, his colleague descended and contacted the Slovak mountain rescue service. The rescuers found his body in a ravine under the mountain ridge. A spokesman for the Slovak rescue team said his injuries were so serious he most likely died on impact.
