The Italian ski resort of Cogne
was cut off Monday when an avalanche engulfed a nearby road. The
avalanche fell onto the regional road that is the only way in
and out of the famed resort.
The Val d'Aosta resort is therefore isolated.
Earlier Monday it was announced that the road to the other
famous skit resort of Cervinia would be closed because of the
risk of avalanches.
Cervinia was also isolated last Thursday, for about 24 hours.
