Hikers rescued in Pyrenees

Gendarmes in Luchon intervened this Monday to rescue a couple of hikers buried under snow, one of whom suffered a broken ankle. The intervention took place on the descent of the Pic du Cagire (1912m).
Despite it “snowing like in winter,” a team of five gendarmes went to the location. The victim was taken down slopes where 20cm (8 inches) of fresh snow had accumulated.
