So far, only six of the ten dead have been identified with certainty.
A huge amount of ice, snow and rock came loose from the Punta rocca glacier (roughly Konspetsen) on the Marmolada mountain peak in northeastern Italy, after the temperatures at an altitude of 3,000 meters rose to up to ten plus degrees.
Climbing groups and hikers were involved in the landslide and during the first days it was uncertain how many there were.
At one point, 30 people were reported missing, but many of them have since been found unharmed.
The unusually warm weather also makes it difficult to search the melting glacier.
Drones are used to find individual tracks or remains.
Given the enormous forces of nature, victims are assumed to be able to lie packed deep in the snow, or be really hard-pressed.
