Mt Hector Avalanche Accident

Incident

Comment

<p>Serious accident today. Party possibly remotely triggered the size 2.5 avalanche on Mt. Hector. It may have started as a windslab release with possible involvement of the upper surface hoar/facet/stellar Dec 31 persistent layer, which then stepped down to the weak basal deep persistent layer in places, see photo - sorry you'll have to turn it.</p>
