avalanche: "The search for a British mountaineer who was trapped in an avalanche in the Sierra Nevada on Sunday was called off when night fell. Two fellow climbers managed to escape from the avalanche unaided, but the third who is known to be British, but who has not yet been named remains under the snow.It is known that the 42 year old is a resident of Zafarraya in Granada province.
A full search operation was mounted by the Sereim Mountain Rescue Service of the Guardia Civil, but conditions were said to be too difficult and dangerous to continue after dark.
A helicopter and dog had been searching for the missing man, with seven Sereim members and other volunteers from Protección Civil and the CETURSA company which runs the Sierra Nevada."
