Overview
- Andreas Dahlmeier says his daughter was struck in the head by a rock during the descent on July 28 and likely died immediately.
- Recovery was ruled out after severe storms and continuing rockfall buried the site, matching her prior instruction to be left on the mountain if a retrieval was too risky.
- A private service took place on August 11 at the Wallfahrtskirche St. Anton in Garmisch-Partenkirchen with about 200 invited guests chosen by her, reflecting her preference for a discreet farewell.
- Music she selected included a modified Oberreintal song with a traditional mountaineers’ refrain, underscoring her deep ties to alpine culture.
- Her father notes a false emergency-beacon alarm a week earlier and says a Kurpark memorial remains well visited as he cautiously returns to climbing in the spirit of her guidance.
