Golden Avy, 3 dead

[Pinner]

RIP,

Three men were killed and another injured after an avalanche thundered down Mount Gerald in eastern British Columbia Saturday.

RCMP say two fathers and two sons were snowmobiling in the Hope River back country area west of Golden, B.C., when the snowslide hit around 4:50 p.m. local time.

“The avalanche appears to have been human triggered when two of the four men were high marking and the other two men were observing at the bottom of the slope,” said Corporal Dan Moskaluk.
