Popular spot in Yosemite closed because of rockslide threat

YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK, Calif. - A busy area for rock climbing in Yosemite National Park has been closed because of the threat of a rock slide.

The National Park Service says climbers reported a new crack in the cliff near Royal Arches, not far from the Ahwahnee Hotel. 

After inspecting the cliff, the park closed much of the area, saying there's a threat a large pillar of rock could fall.

There's no word when it will be reopened.
