Ulrike Maier's grave in Rauris, Austria

Ulrike Maier (22 October 1967 - 29 January 1994) was an Austrian alpine skier, two-time Super-G World Alpine Ski Champion.

Born at Rauris, Maier won the Super-G gold medal at the World Alpine Ski Championships in both 1989 and 1991. She also took home the giant slalom bronze medal in the 1991 event. She scored a total of 5 World Cup (2 Super-G, 3 Giant Slalom) race victories in her career.

On 29 January 1994 during a World Cup downhill race in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany, Maier crashed into a post while skiing at 120 km/h down the slope. She died of her injuries shortly after being evacuated to the hospital in nearby Murnau, Germany. She had planned to retire at the end of the 1993-1994 season.

Maier was survived by her daughter and was buried in her home village of Rauris, Austria.
