Overview

• Dahlmeier was struck by falling rocks on July 28 at roughly 5,700 meters during an alpine-style ascent of Laila Peak.
• A helicopter search on July 29 spotted no signs of life and was halted by low visibility in severe weather.
• On July 30, a team of three American climbers and one German mountaineer began a ground rescue operation to reach her.
• Harsh monsoon conditions and the peak’s remoteness have repeatedly delayed efforts and grounded aerial support.
• Her partner, Marina Eva Krauss, descended safely to base camp, and Dahlmeier’s precise status remains unknown despite having oxygen supplies.
