Among missions of the day, the EC145 crew has performed the rescue of an exhausted climber and his guide at the Aiguille Verte. In order to have a maximum of power reserve, the rescue was completed in two rotations from the Whymper Glacier. An injured trekker and his grilfriend were then winched from a ravine at Mont Joly. These pictures were taken by Pierre GILLARD.
