A British skier has died in the French Alps after he and two friends plunged hundreds of feet from a ridge while skiing off piste.
In a separate incident, a 13-year-old boy died when both he and his brother fell off a cliff after they got lost while skiing with their family.
The Briton, who has not been named, was with two friends in the resort of Oz-en-Oisans on Saturday when they decided to leave the marked slopes. Police said that all three men were in their 20s and were experienced skiers.
“They were following ski tracks but they got lost when the tracks came to an end,” a spokesman for the gendarme mountain rescue unit, based in nearby Grenoble, told the Telegraph.
