Three German hikers started on the Königsjodler via ferrata in Austria despite adverse weather conditions and a late start. One of them, a 20-year-old, became exhausted and had to be left behind by his companions who continued to the closed Matrashaus hut. A snowstorm prevented a helicopter rescue, and the mountain rescue team took 14 hours to reach the stranded hiker, securing him for descent through deep snow and difficult terrain. The operation ended at around 8:20 a.m. the next day.
