20 March 2023 at 01:19 Swedish ski tourist died in an avalanche in the Alps A 25-year-old Swedish woman died in an avalanche accident at the ski resort of Courmayeur in Italy, reports SVT. Another Swedish citizen is missing after the accident. The two Swedish women were reportedly with two men who escaped unharmed from the avalanche, writes the Italian newspaper Il Gazzettino. The four were freeriding in a very steep area in the Aosta Valley. The search for the missing woman has been difficult due to poor visibility and the risk of avalanches. It has been difficult to use a helicopter due to low cloud cover, so the rescue teams have had to make their way on foot. The search continues Monday morning.
