A 53-year-old Irish man died on January 20, 2026, from injuries sustained in an avalanche on January 13 in the off-piste area near Ovronnaz, Switzerland, at about 2,360 meters.
Three skiers were involved; the man was swept away, found by companions using transceivers, and airlifted to a hospital where he died after resuscitation attempts.
This incident is part of a series of deadly avalanches across the Alps in the past 10 days, with at least five fatalities in Switzerland’s Valais region alone, including a former Olympic medalist.
Authorities continue to investigate.
