Stormy weather on the glacier

Yann Dupertuis

In April 2019, three climbers from two different rope teams fall into one and the same crevasse in the Monte Rosa mountains. A fierce storm and thick fog complicate the rescue operation by Air Zermatt. But the rescuers manage to bring several alpinists to safety. For one alpinist, however, all help comes too late. The rescuers have to leave the victim in the crevasse - forever. This podcast episode shows impressively that not every rescue has a happy ending.
