Overview
- The slide occurred around 14:00 local time in off‑piste terrain between marked runs at the Claviere area of Val di Susa.
- Helicopters and ground teams from 115, 118, Soccorso Alpino with canine units, and Carabinieri skiers deployed to the site.
- Searches at the avalanche path located no buried or involved persons, contrary to early assumptions.
- A ski instructor who raised the alarm reported seeing at least two or three people in the slide, prompting the broad response.
- The regional bulletin rated avalanche danger 3‑marked above 2,000 meters and 2‑moderate below, warning that fresh, wind‑packed snow remains partly unstable and that a single skier can trigger avalanches in specific terrain features.
