A 50-year-old SAC tour guide fell around 150 meters down the Gamschtällihorn on Saturday. He could only be rescued dead.
The tour leader was at the front of a group of four on the ascent to the Erzhorn at 2,800 meters above sea level, as the Graubünden cantonal police reported on Sunday. He crashed shortly before 12.30 pm.
According to a statement, a doctor from the air rescue service was only able to determine that the alpinist had died. The public prosecutor's office and the cantonal police of Graubünden are investigating the exact circumstances of the mountain accident.
The three other members of the tour group were flown out of the area and received psychological support from a care team.
