A ski mountaineer carried away by an avalanche at the Col des Montets

The recent snowfall and the mild weather have made the snowpack unstable. Three skiers were doing some ski touring in the Col des Montets area in Chamonix, more precisely in the valley of Encrenaz, and they have paid the price. An avalanche of heavy snow took and bury one of three skiers almost 400 meters. The skier survived thanks to a true miracle. He suffered from mild hypothermia and hypoxia due to lack of oxygen in the snow. Le Dauphiné
