Mort blanche durant la première guerre mondiale
L'hiver 1916/1917 fut extrêmement riche en neige dans les Alpes du Sud-Est. Pendant que la neige s'accumulait sur les sommets, la guerre régnait entre les soldats italiens et austro-hongrois. Des milliers de soldats et de civilistes périrent suite à de nombreuses avalanches mortelles.
