On July 19, Rocky, a woman from Shanghai, walked into the Shishapangma Snow Mountain alone. On the 20th, she made contact with the outside world for the last time and then lost contact. Rocky's family and friends have sought help from the local police in Tibet and people in the outdoor circle to find her whereabouts.

On July 30, a netizen who claimed to be Rocky's cousin told The Paper that after 10:35 a.m. on July 20, Rocky's phone no longer had data and no calls.

A netizen posted an article saying that the missing Shanghai woman Rocky was found near the ice tower forest.

Mr. Zhang, the leader of the outdoor team who helped in the search, previously told The Paper that he was a good friend of Rocky's bestie. After learning that Rocky was missing, he posted a message on the social platform asking for help. Mr. Zhang said that Rocky planned a 56-kilometer hiking route, which could be completed in 3-5 days. On the afternoon of the 19th, Rocky went into the mountains alone with a green tent, a red backpack, a gas tank and 7 days of food. He also chatted with his bestie on the 20th.
