Two die in Arcs Avalanche

An avalanche killed two skiers close to the piste in Les Arcs at 13h40 yesterday.  The skiers were part of two groups, one of four skiers and the other of eight who were off-piste in the Grand Col sector of les Arcs.  The avalanche was between 2700 - 2800 meters altitude and caught four skiers.  Two were rescued alive.
