Glacier simulation sheds light on accident after 88 yearsIn March 1926, four young men failed to return from their ski tour on Aletschgletscher. Working on the basis of where their remains were found, a mathematician and a glaciologist are now attempting to reconstruct what happened. At midday on a March day in 1926, four men, three of whom were brothers, met at Hollandiahütte above Aletschgletscher.
