When the couple didn’t return from their ski mountaineering trip, their worried families reported them missing. An emergency rescue team was dispatched to the scene. After several hours of search operations, a cell phone signal was finally detected, leading to the discovery of their bodies buried in the snow. The couple were found embracing each other, evoking a sense of deep sorrow. In the 2021 International Ski and Snowboard Federation (FIS) Alpine Ski World Cup, Pession finished 15th; a year later, he finished 22nd. The tragic news of their deaths has led to an outpouring of condolences from fans.
