Mudslide and glacier debate hit Austria's Pitztal valley

Original: pitztal

Tyrol's Pitztal is drawing attention for two reasons: a landslide blocked a state road in the valley, forcing traffic to be diverted, and a controversy has erupted at the Pitztal Glacier over whether snow should be shoveled from melting glaciers to preserve ski tourism. The glacier debate highlights tensions between Austria's winter sports industry and climate change.

Why now: A landslide disrupting travel and an unusual proposal to save glacier skiing are both newsworthy for locals and winter sports fans.
