A snowshoer died in a Pyrenees avalanche, the second in days, prompting warnings of ongoing high risk.

A snowshoer died in an avalanche near the Bielsa Valley in Spain’s Pyrenees on Thursday, the second deadly slide in the region within days. The man was one of two people caught in the Wednesday snowslide; his companion escaped and alerted rescuers. Civil Guard teams, using shovels and rescue dogs, found the body Thursday. This follows an earlier avalanche on Monday that killed three skiers and injured a woman with mild hypothermia. Authorities continue to warn of high avalanche risks due to winter weather and urge caution in mountainous areas.
