Snowmobiler killed in avalanche near Tumbler Ridge in northeastern B.C.

A snowmobiler has died after being caught in an avalanche in the Rocky Mountains of northeastern British Columbia, according to Avalanche Canada. The incident happened Tuesday in the Bullmoose area near Tumbler Ridge, where three snowmobilers were riding together. Avalanche Canada said the slide was remotely triggered from the bottom of the slope, highlighting the unstable conditions in the region at the time.
