Yesterday afternoon a 20 year old skier fell around 10m into a crevasse in an off piste area on the North West side of the glacier.

Thankfully he was found relatively easily and only seemed to have sustained several bruises from the accident.

He was taken to Bourg St Maurice hospital for treatment.
