At about 3200 metres one fell into a crevasse hidden by snow. A man of around 40, he fell 7 metres, dislocating a shoulder. <br /> A nearby Mountain Guide witnessed and gave assistance. Using a crevasse rescue technique the Guide was able organise pulling the man out by his harness. The injured man was airlifted to Arc 2000. https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/10181/90310.page https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/10181/90310.page Sat, 12 Mar 2011 14:35:52 GMT
