(ANSA) - AOSTA, APRIL 13 - An avalanche swept over a roped party from the Alpine guide course in Val di Rhemes (Aosta), in the Tsanteleina area.
According to ANSA, the person in charge of the consortium (a mountain guide from the Aosta Valley) survived and was able to descend to the valley and raise the alarm, while three aspiring mountain guides are missing in the snow.
The rescue operations are complex due to the bad weather which prevents the helicopter from reaching altitude.
