In the morning, the man was with his 17-year-old son in the off-piste area above the slope when he suddenly fell heavily on a steep slope and was thrown several meters further. Uninvolved first responders, including two doctors, provided first aid to the Czech man, who was initially still conscious, but he nevertheless died at the accident site.

Based on previous investigations, it can be assumed that the 59-year-old brushed against a snow-covered rock with his left ski, causing him to fall, the Tyrol State Police Directorate announced in the evening.
