The body under the air and the ground search was found under the top of the ADler Glacier. Valais local police said in a Sunday statement.
The victims were found in various altitudes of snow crisis debris in high altitudes near the Swiss-Italian border.
Rescue service AIR Zermatt said that three bodies were located in one area and were higher in narrow eye patches.
The fifth ski skiing was later found during the search and confirmed that the group traveled to five parties. Their identity has not been officially disclosed yet.

Zermatt is one of Switzerland’s more premium alpine resorts and has been visited by abundant British and other European skiers. However, climbing to Rimpfischhorn is considered an advanced expedition for about 5 hours in the resort.
There are a number of approaches to climbing, and all of them need one night at high huts. In Zermatt, the usual method is to take the lift at 2570 meters.

The initial evacuation attempts had to be stopped due to the weather, but after midnight, the second attempt brought all four to safety.
