A 20-year-old college student tragically died in an apparent ski accident in Rib Mountain, Wisconsin<\/a>, earlier this month, marking the second fatal incident reported at the resort in a matter of weeks.<\/p>\n

Alexandra “Ally” Blattner reportedly crashed into a tree at Granite Peak<\/a> Ski Resort on Feb. 5,\u00a0according to<\/u><\/a> local outlet The Wausonian. She was found with a broken neck and likely died at the scene, the Marathon County Sheriff’s Office told<\/u> <\/a>WLUK.<\/p>\n

Blattner, a Neenah resident and sophomore at the University of Wisconsin\u2013Oshkosh, died “in an instant and without pain,” according to her obituary.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“While enjoying life as she did best, Alexandra Jean Blattner unexpectedly passed away after a skiing accident on Thursday evening, February 5th, 2026,” her obituary said.<\/p>\n

The school’s chancellor announced Blattner\u2019s death to the campus<\/a> the following day, People\u00a0reported<\/u><\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He added that he had gotten to know her shortly after she arrived last summer.<\/p>\n

“Ally is something that I\u2019ll also be living with for my entire life,” Manohar Singh told\u00a0WLUK. “She and I connected very well when I was the new chancellor.”<\/p>\n

According to her obituary, Blattner was studying pre-nursing and psychology. She served as a student government senator and was a chapter member of the Tri Sigma sorority, where she held the position of vice president of recruitment.<\/p>\n

“Ally was a shining light in every room she entered. She loved to be with others,” her obituary read. “She wouldn\u2019t walk away until you were smiling and laughing along with her. Although short, she lived her life with energy, meaning and enjoyment.”<\/p>\n

“We are all so lucky to get to call Ally our sister. She not only made an impact in our lives but all across our campus community,” Tori Deptula, president of the school\u2019s sorority chapter, said.<\/p>\n

Blattner\u2019s death marks the second fatal incident in less than a month at Granite Peak.<\/p>\n

On Jan. 11, 30-year-old Matthew Ciolkosz also crashed into a tree after losing a ski,\u00a0according to<\/u><\/a> local media WSAW. His head reportedly struck the tree<\/a>, shattering his helmet. Despite lifesaving measures, he later died from his injuries.<\/p>\n

The sheriff’s office told The Wausonian that both deaths were considered accidental.<\/p>\n

Fox News Digital reached out to the Marathon County Sheriff’s Office and Granite Peak Ski Resort for more information.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
