Caught in an avalanche at Pic du Midi, a snowboarder is found and rescued ten minutes later under the snow. Suffering from hypothermia, the man was treated on site before being airlifted to the emergency room of Tarbes hospital.
“He miraculously survived a large-scale avalanche which could have had a dramatic outcome, without first of all incredible luck, but also thanks to his equipment and the responsiveness of his companions who allowed him to breathe very quickly”
