Thirteen days after Kalie McCrystal’s disappearance on the Matterhorn, the 38-year-old Canadian skyrunner remains unaccounted for. The information available indicates the athlete has not been found since the incident, and that the searches have not produced a clear locator. The case therefore remains open, but without confirmation of her being nearby.

A new operation was carried out on Friday 11 September, mobilising a helicopter, drones and artificial intelligence software. Despite this set-up, the objective was not achieved: no trace of the athlete was found during the search. This lack of results will shape what happens next on the ground.

Following the lack of results from this operation, active searches have again been suspended. The text specifies that this decision comes after this attempt, suggesting a temporary pause in the resources committed, given the information gathered so far. Whether future actions are resumed remains linked to new signals to come.
