NH Mt. Washington ski death, rescue Sat.-Sun. – NECN

Officials said on Sunday that a backcover skier has died on Mount Washington in New Hampshire. At least two people were rescued during a discovery that extended until a stormy night and Sunday morning.

The US One Service identified the skier, who died as Madison Saltsburg. She fell on Saturday afternoon in very steep areas and about 600 vertical legs (183 meters) in hard, icy conditions. Other people were also injured on Saturday, including two people who faced painful injuries from rocks and snow, Seva said in a statement.

According to officials, three people had trouble in Takkarman Revin on Saturday afternoon, a field popular with the backcountry skier. Two people faced injuries that were not deadly before the commencement of rescue efforts.

“Snow Rangers and emergency personnel were there late last night. They are tired, “Choline Menville said, a spokesman of the US One Service.

He said the conditions in the ravine were icy.


The rescue teams were also struggling with snow and winds. The National Meteorological Service issued a winter storm warning, which was predicted up to 1 foot (30 cm) of heavy, wet ice and strong winds.

The mountain is the longest in the Northeast and is notorious for its playful season. This is a constant vision of rescue.

The night before the three people got into trouble, New Hampshire Fish & Game reported that a 23 -year -old Kentki’s 23 -year -old Hykar was rescued after going away from the trail and after going to Ammonosyus Revin.

The agency said in a statement, “Hicker fell and hit his head and face, lost one of his sneakers, and eventually became hypothermic.”

“They were given shoes, food, hot drinks, proper winter gear and a headlamp. He was then taken back to the footpath and then in the Kog Railway Parking, ”the agency said.

In February, another hicker, who was rescued from Ammonosuke Revin, described the Associated Press for his 11 -hour examination, admitting that he had made some poor decisions and weakened for his growth.
