The Aosta Valley Alpine Rescue intervened for an avalanche in the Ves gully, in Val Veny, above Courmayeur (Aosta). The alarm was given around 13 pm by skiers who witnessed the detachment. It is not excluded - according to what has been learned - that some skiers may have been involved.
Given the impossibility of reaching the place by helicopter due to bad weather (lack of visibility at high altitude) two teams composed of technicians of the Aosta Valley Alpine Rescue, Guardia di Finanza and doctors left by land. The intervention - they know from the rescue center - is made difficult, as well as by weather conditions, also by the instability of the snow cover.
