A British man has died in an avalanche in the French Alps.
The man, believed to be in his 50s, was skiing with a group off-piste at La Plagne, a statement from the resort said.
Rescuers were alerted to the avalanche at 13:57 (12:57 GMT) on Sunday and went immediately to the area, it added.
The man was discovered under 2.5 metres (8ft) of snow after a 50-minute search.
He had been skiing without an avalanche transceiver or a professional instructor, the resort said.
La Plagne said its thoughts were with the man’s family.
