"The body of a Chinese tourist who had been missing for more than two months has been recovered in the Dolomites of northern Italy, authorities confirmed. The 28-year-old, identified as Peng Huang, was found around 2,000 meters (6,560 feet), just below the Mittagsscharte in the Geislergruppe, between Val Gardena/Gröden and Val di Funes/Villnöss."
"Huang had been missing since January 20, when he failed to return from a solo excursion after leaving his accommodation in Ortisei/St. Ulrich. Search teams had concentrated efforts in the surrounding regions, including the Geislergruppe, but were unable to locate him at the time."
"Initial findings suggest Huang was caught in an avalanche and buried, with snowpack conditions likely concealing his body until the arrival of spring temperatures led to his discovery this week."
