In a heartbreaking turn of events, search teams have found the remains of Mallory Geis, the last missing climber from a deadly avalanche on Broad Peak. At just 39, this San Antonio native was on her first attempt to summit an eight-thousand-meter peak in Pakistan — a bold leap she’d spoken about with excitement earlier this year. Part of a ten-person team led by famed climber Nirmal Purja, Geis and her fellow adventurers were swept away in a sudden slide that claimed all lives. Local volunteers helped recover her body after weeks of searching. Her family called her a “bright light,” deeply cherished by loved ones. Broad Peak remains one of the most treacherous mountains in the world, where avalanches, falling ice, extreme altitude, and volatile weather make every climb a gamble with life.
