Snowmobiler death in BC avalanche

Found this report that there has been another unfortunate fatality in the BC backcountry. Conditions appear to have not been favourable for this activity and the position of the victim seems to have not been the best either - hopefully people can learn from this and those close to the victim involved are coping considering the circumstances.

Avalanche Death south of Smithers

Officials will try again today to recover the body of a snowmobiler killed on the weekend south of Smithers. The man was killed as he photographed another sledder highmarking on a snow-covered  slope. The avalanche engulfed a man at the bottom of the hill after the second man had climbed up the slope, triggering the avalanche. The second sledder tried to dig his friend out, but couldn't rescue him in time. The incident happened about 20 kilometers south of Smithers in a popular area known as the Microwave Trail. There are very dangerous conditions in the Smithers area today, and Search and Rescue officials are waiting for specialists from Terrace to arrive before they try and go in to get the body.
