    From the article:
    He was descending a 1,900m slope with a companion.

    The avalanche happened around 2pm in the Flassin area, in the Gran San Bernardo Valley in the Aosta Valley at a height of around 1,800m.

    The force of the avalanche tore off his transceiver but his body was found by an avalanche rescue dog.

    Sorry I didn't post on hear earlier. I lost a good and close friend. I've know Luca for nearly 20 years. For Luca the love of the mountains came first. I was lucky to first meet him part way down the Grand Envers, back when the might be 5 people of the Midi in a day.

    Saw the mention on the home page of TGR

    Sorry for your loss Idris.
    He went with Jeremy Jones to the Himalaya in the third film Higher.

    I am sorry to hear of his passing.
