Andreas Fransson (15 April 1983 – 29 September 2014) was a Swedish extreme skier perhaps best known for his having made descents of the hitherto un-skied specific faces of mountains.[1] Among his inaugural descents was that of the south face of Denali in Alaska during the spring of 2011.[2]
Fransson died alongside JP Auclair in an avalanche on 29 September 2014 on Monte San Lorenzo in Aysen, Chile while filming for the webisode series Apogee Skiing.[3]
