Laura Dahlmeier (deceased at 31): No rescue efforts were successful in reviving her, thus declaring her deceased
Laura Dahlmeier, a two-time Olympic champion and a seven-time world champion in biathlon, tragically lost her life in the Karakorum mountains on July 28, 2025. She was climbing Laila Peak when she was struck by a rockfall during a descent at approximately 5,700 meters.
Rescue efforts were initiated immediately, but due to dangerous conditions and the ongoing risk of rockfall, they were halted. The recovery was discontinued in accordance with Dahlmeier's final wishes, but no explicit written instructions regarding her body have been reported or made public.
Dahlmeier's rope partner, Marina Krauss, attempted to retrieve her for many hours, but the difficult terrain and continued rockfall made it impossible. Krauss eventually decided to descend from the danger zone at night.
The family of Laura Dahlmeier also explicitly asked that her last wish be respected. Despite this, there are no publicly available reports or sources that mention Dahlmeier's written instructions regarding her body after her tragic accident.
Laura Dahlmeier's death has left a void in the sports world and among all those who knew and admired her. She was passionately dedicated to mountaineering, and her loss is deeply felt by the community.
