Summary edit

Description
Français : Stèle, Porté-Puymorens, Pyrénées-Orientales (66), une avalanche de mars 1954 tue deux personnes.

"En mars 1954, la région du Puymorens est endeuillé par une terrible avanlanche de 900m de long, 50 à 100m de large et mesurant par endroit jusqu'à 15m de hauteur. La neige, froide et sèche, tombée en abondance à favorisé le glissement de la poudreuse sur la couche ancienne. André PEIX, âgé alors de 30 ans, quitte la mine de Porté afin de rejoindre le village en compagnie du jeune Tito CONESTA, âgé de 11ans, qui lui regagnait l'école après les vacances de Carnaval. Que s'est-il passé? nul ne le sait ! peut-être que les 2 skieurs sont passés trop près d'une corniche... Malgré toutes les recherches mises en place suite à cette catastrophe, celles-ci resteront vaines."
