A snowmobier was caught and killed while riding on the road leading to Daisy Pass. The avalanche came down the slope above the words "Accident Site". The Pass is located up the road to the left. The slide that buried the rider likely released naturally, catching him as he attempted to turn around at the bottom of the path. Three other riders were also partially buried, two with just their arms sticking out of the snow. The three riders that were partially buried escaped unharmed. Photo GNFAC
