"A Toronto woman finally has the answer about what happened to her brother, who went missing during a ski trip to Europe 35 years ago.

Sonja Barnes's 24-year-old brother, Gregory Barnes, disappeared in 1980 while skiing in the Italian and Swiss Alps.

"It's been a bit of a mystery," she told CBC's Michelle Cheung this week. "I hung onto hope for an awfully long time because there was no body, there was no trace."

Thanks to a heat wave, hoping that any other people who may be lost in the mountains, may also be revealed, imo.
