PARIS, Shawwal 17, 1435, Aug 13, 2014, SPA -- Five climbers died and a sixth was missing Wednesday on France's Mont Blanc, AP quoted officials as saying. August is the height of the climbing season on Europe's tallest mountain, where even in the warmest months fierce snowstorms can strike quickly. The climbers disappeared overnight as they were trying to reach the Aiguille d'Argentiere, which tops out around 3,900 meters (12,800 feet). Mont Blanc, in addition to its primary peak, contains some 200 summits. The bodies of five climbers were located Wednesday, while a sixth has not been found, said Jean-Marc Peillex, mayor of Saint-Gervais, a town at the foot of Mont Blanc. --SPA 14:00 LOCAL TIME 11:00 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
